THIS WEEK
AT NORTHSIDE
A Holy Discontent
Sunday, August 31
When we experience holy discontent, we can have hope that God will use us in powerful ways to accomplish His good work. We hope you'll join us this Sunday at 9:00 or 10:45 am as we start our new series in Nehemiah and explore the "holy discontent" that God brings about in our lives.
August Ministry Spotlight
Rise Against Hunger
Rise Against Hunger is a non-profit organization driven by the reality that hunger impacts everything. They nourish lives through meal packaging events, respond to emergencies with in-need resources and empower communities to stand strong through training for self-sustainability.
Rise Against Hunger targets remote, last-mile communities within hunger pockets designated “serious” or higher on the Global Hunger Index, which are the hardest places to reach and are often difficult to access, lack communication and have poor infrastructure. With the support of our global impact partners, they practice locally-led development by providing expertise vital to empower local communities and providing meals through local schools to incentive attendance and enable kids to obtain an education. Their work starts with a meal.
Northside Students
Northside Students meet on the first, third and fifth Sunday of the month from 5:30-7:30 pm, on the second and fourth Sunday of each month we share a meal together and meet from 5:00-7:30 pm.
