Our Vision Statement
|
Old North Church is an inclusive Christian Community called to bring to life God's love and grace by sharing the gospel for this time and place; extending the hospitality Christ showed; embodying God's love and compassion to those in need; and growing together in our understanding and experience of the Holy Spirit at work in our midst. |

Temple Emanu-El/Old North Church Annual Pulpit Exchange |
This weekend we will continue a half-century old tradition of worshipping with our friends at Temple Emanu-El. On Friday evening, Rev. Calhoun will be speaking from the bima at the service to welcome the Sabbath. The service begins at 6 pm at Temple Emanu-El. Then, on Sunday, Rabbi Meyer will be our pulpit guest at both the 8 and 10 am services. Rabbi Meyer and Rev. Calhoun will be sharing their reflections of their recent trip to Israel and the West Bank with members of both congregations. We hope you will join us both Friday AND Sunday! |
