March is a month of celebrations at National Heights.
Sunday, March 15,
we will celebrate the conclusion of our
Envision Campaign.
In three years, you have generously given $638,800.50 to help NHBC prepare to reach future generations for the glory of Christ. We will have special celebrations in both our morning services to give thanks to God for how He has worked through His people at National Heights.
Thank you for your prayers for our NHBC 2020 Vision. Check out our ministry initiative board in the Welcome Center. We will continue to list new ministry initiatives as you prayerfully develop new strategies to reach individuals and families for Christ. It’s going to be a great year at NHBC. I can’t wait to see what God is going to do through you!

We have given $66.66 to each of the following: Angel Tree; Franklin Fund; and Lottie Moon, while also purchasing meat for meals. Each monthly meeting we collect canned goods and paper products for Grand Oak Mission. In 2018 we gave $50 to each of the following: GCBA Jim Joslin Offering; Malta Youth mission and Youth Fundraising.
We continually enjoy all kinds of entertainment and delicious carry-in luncheons. We would like to invite all that can come join us on the third Thursday of each month. We ask that you bring a dish of your own choosing for our carry-in luncheon.
