Merry Christmas my dear friends and all loved by the Lord Jesus. This issue of the Northlake Compass focuses on what’s happening this Christmas Season.
Sunday Morning Christmas Series
When we think of Christmas many different images and messages come to mind: the landing of heaven here on earth, angels worshipping the new born king, the promise of peace, God becoming one of us, etc. This year in our Sunday messages we’ll focus on a different theme, “When Playing it Safe Is Risky”. Each week we’ll focus on a different Christmas character to see how Christmas calls us to take risks. Here’s how the series unfolds:
Dec 16 Part 1 When shepherds leave their flocks
Dec 23 Part 2 When Joseph says yes to Mary’s proposal
Dec 24 Part 3 When Mary receives Jesus

New Ministry LeadGail Dart has volunteered to serve as our new Visitation Coordinator. This is a huge answer to prayer. As the volunteer Visitation Coordinator Gail will oversee all our visitation ministries from newcomers to hospital to homebound., etc. Many of you have expressed interest in sharing Christ’s care for folks who need some TLC and visitation. For those who have or who would like to be involved please give Gail a call at the church 671-9500 or email her at gaild@northlakeonline.org.
May the King of glory fill your hearts, lift your hopes and use us to spread the terrific news of the King’s arrival everywhere we go!
