NPC Kids Connections September 28th, 2017

Dear NPC Families, We hope this message finds everyone well!  Here's an update on all that's going on with Northminster's Children's Ministry for the end of September.  WE THANK YOU FOR READING TO THE VERY BOTTOM! 

Sunday Morning Opportunities!

Sunday School 10:00 - 11:00 am This month we are studying The 10 Commandments! “I’ll take you as my people, and I’ll be your God.” Exodus 6:7 Preschoolers - Room 115  Kindergarten-1st Grade - Room 106  2nd-5th Grade - Room 107 For Adults: Today at Ten  ~ A drop in class where the topic changes from week to week. Each class stands alone, so “do drop in” when you are able.  Room 110/111     NPC Connections  ~ Our vision for this class is to have discussion based classes based on current events, what is going on in our very busy lives with careers and families, and to share our prayer needs with each other.  Room 139   Discovering the Bible  ~ an in-depth group Bible Study in which participants read and discuss the Bible together, learning how to love God and each other better.  Room 137

MISSION SUNDAY IS COMING UP on October 1st!

Adult Sunday School Sunday, October 1st 10:00 - 11:00 am in the Fellowship Hall Come learn more about Homestretch and how Northminster partners with such a great organization!! Mission Sunday for children!

Join us on Saturday, October 21, 2017

Help us pack 10,000 meals for children and expectant mothers on Saturday, October 21 1-4pm We have an awesome opportunity to partner with the folks at Rise Against Hunger, an international hunger relief organization that distributes food and life-changing aid to the world’s most vulnerable, mobilizing the necessary resources to end hunger by 2030. The organization will deliver supplies and provide training on how to assemble 10,000 meal kits which will then be distributed to families in need. It’s very likely these kits will be sent to families who are recovering from Hurricane Harvey or Irma although some may be sent elsewhere. Their goal is to feed children and expectant mothers; more information can be found on their website -   riseagainsthunger.org .  We need a 60+ volunteers. Children as young as 4 years old are welcome to help package meals.  Please contact andreavandervort@gmail.com  to sign up for October 21st 1-4pm!

Your copy should address 3 key questions: Who am I writing for? (Audience) Why should they care? (Benefit) What do I want them to do here? (Call-to-Action) Create a great offer by adding words like "free" "personalized" "complimentary" or "customized." A sense of urgency often helps readers take an action, so think about inserting phrases like "for a limited time only" or "only 7 remaining!"
