THE KNIT WITS

One of the important mission-oriented work groups in our church consists of 9 knitters, fondly known as the Knit Wits. These ladies meet every Wednesday morning, and just this year have lovingly made the following:


  • 46 lap robes for Lutheran charities
  • 34 lap robes for Hope Hospice
  • 174 items for Alma Illery Medical Center
  • 12 scarves & 12 mittens for North Hills Community Outreach
  • 20 hats for Northside Common Ministries.


Last week, Bonnie and Bernie (two members of the group) displayed their mission work at a community event at Michael’s arts and crafts store on McKnight Rd.


Thank you to all who share their time and talents to bring comfort to those in need.

Northmont is collecting food and items to be distributed to needy families By Northside Common Ministries (NCM)

Bags are located at the sanctuary entrances and on the table by the tower entrance. Please return your bags to the library across from the church office no later than Sunday, October 12th.

World Communion Sunday is always a joyous celebration. In honor of the occasion the choir will sing in a number of styles and languages from around the world. Enjoy!

Do you have a tall, legal-sized file cabinet that you’d like to donate to the church? Stephen Schall is looking for one to house part of the Northmont choral music library.
