AMOS Christmas celebration on December 20th at 6pm. SFMT will provide pizza, please bring a side or dessert to share! | The Return of Northmont Deacon’s Angel Tree | |
After several years of absence during Covid, Northmont people will once again be able to help give a proper Christmas to those less fortunate than we. The Angel Tree will be set up in the foyer of the main entrance off the parking lot. Simply choose a gift tag or tags from the tree, then return your unwrapped gift(s) between November 5 and December 3. Gift cards can be placed in a container in the church office; other, unwrapped, items can be placed in the designated box in the church library.
Last year’s holiday toy drive for North Hills Community Outreach provided new toys, games, and other gifts to 821 children. Northmont has always been a generous church. May our efforts be fruitful once again this year to help families in need in our community.

CLEF NOTES
By: Music Director, Stephen Schall
| Today we celebrate the Reign of Christ, and the end of the liturgical year. To mark the day we are joined by trumpet and timpani. Next week, a new year begins with the First Sunday of Advent. | Hymn of the Month: November | November’s hymn of the month is “Jesus Comes with Clouds Descending.” The text was written by Charles Wesley, brother of the founder of Methodism, John Wesley. Charles is considered one of the great, if not the greatest, hymn writers ever. Eleven of his hymns are found in The Presbyterian Hymnal including “Come, Thou Long-expected Jesus,” "O for a Thousand Tongues to Sing,” and “Love Divine, All Loves Excelling.” | Mark your calendars for all the fall events! | |
