Life is better together!

At Northpark, we believe life-change happens in the context of meaningful relationships! And one way we foster those meaningful reletionshps is through GROUPS. These are small group Bible studies with a social/community aspect as well. Truly living life together with others in our church family and community.


Some are ongoing, some are topical, some are short-term or series based. There is something for everyone. Various times, locations, schedules. Check it out and find a group for you today!

MOBILE MARKET OUTREACH
Every Other Wednesday @ 12:15PM

For the past four years, Northpark has partnered with The Oaks Community and the Inter-Faith Food Shuttle to host a bi-weekly Mobile Market and provide FREE food for anyone in our community that needs it. Local grocers and farms donate produce, meat, bread, desserts, dry goods, and more, and the Inter-Faith Food Shuttle delivers these donations to The Oaks neighborhood (near Sanderson High School) every other week. A team of volunteers (that's us!) helps unload the donation boxes, organize the foods, and then pre-packs large boxes with various foods for those who stop by. The truck typically arrives around 12:15PM on it's scheduled weeks and the unpacking/sorting is typically done between 1:30-2:00PM.


Want to help?

If you would like to volunteer one or even multiple Wednesdays, or if you would like additional information, contact Stephanie at [email protected]!


UPCOMING MARKET DAYS:

  • May 24
  • June 07
  • June 21
