This Sunday: "Giving Beyond Benefit"

In the pulpit: Rev. Virzola Law

Scripture: Luke 6:32-36

It may seem early, but we are in full-swing prep for Advent at Northway!

I am excited to share that I’ll be leading an intergenerational Sunday School throughout the Advent season. We value intergenerational relationships here at Northway, and this is an opportunity to build up those connections!

We’ll be using an art-based curriculum that goes with our worship series, “What do you fear? Insisting on Hope This Advent.” The curriculum is written with all ages in mind. The language is simple enough for children to understand, and the prompts and activities are engaging enough for adults to fully participate alongside them. Each week will include prayer, telling the bible story through original monologues, discussion, and engaging in art and activities to further explore the themes and scriptures. Not only will Sunday School tie directly into worship, you’ll go home with art you created to help you practice what you learned throughout the week.

We’ll start at 9:30 am on November 30, December 7, 14, 21, 28, and January 4 in 
F-101. Bring your coffee, tea, or hot chocolate and join as we pursue hope!

See you in church,

Pastor Chesna
Minister to Children, Youth, and Families

This calendar year – 2025 – we are setting a congregation goal of

25,000 Hours of Blessing and Service! Will you help us reach our goal?

Everyone can participate - members, visitors, guests, and neighbors who want to contribute to Building the Beloved Community. If you're here on Sundays, simply fill out a card and place it in the offering tray as it's passed. Or, to access a digital card click here or scan the QR code.

What counts as Hours of Blessing & Service? Working at Northway's mobile food pantry, diaper distribution, or community garden events are obvious examples, but every moment of kindness to your neighbor counts. 

Happy birthday to Ada Brown, Bill Coburn, Isaac Zimmerman, and Sarah Morgan.

Hey Parents! If you'd like to keep up with Northway's activities for children and youth, you'll want to click here to check out our "Parent Connection" newsletter. If you're not receiving this weekly email, but would like to, send us a note.
