Gift Card Orders taken Sunday, July 19

Pam English will be taking gift card orders July 19.  You may place an order with her or purchase from the many available gift cards we have on hand.  The church receives a percentage of each card but you receive the full face value.  Thank you in advance for participating in this on-going, year-round fundraiser that truly assists the church with meeting its budget.

Movie Night Sunday, July 19, beginning at 5:00pm!

Join your NCC family Sunday evening for Movie Night on the big screen.  We’ll be showing “Finding Nemo” at 5:00pm inside and then at 8:30pm we’ll show “Facing the Giants” outside as a ‘Drive-In’ style event!  Come join us for one or both movies and enjoy authentic movie popcorn, candy, steamed hot dogs, drinks, and lots of fun and laughs!  The outdoor movie will be in the back lawn/parking lot area as well as seating on the grass area.  For more info contact  Mike Magoon.

Search Committee for Musician Position

A Search Committee is being formed, so that that the process can begin to find potential candidates to fill Northwood Congregational Church’s open Musician position.  If you are interested on being on this committee, or know somebody who would, contact Faith Levesque or Dan Ferguson, by Sunday, August 2.  You do not need to sing in the choir, or even carry a tune, to be on this Committee.  :)

Birthday Card

On July 22, Marion Schroeder becomes 100 years old.  On Sunday, Aug. 2,  there will be an Open House at the Edgewood Centre where she lives.  All who remember her are invited to come 2:00-3:30pm to share some cake and punch with Marion in the Sun Porch Room on the East Wing (see address below).  If you can come to Marion's Open House, please RSVP, so we get the cake size just right!  Please contact Johanna Chase if you would like to attend.  For those who cannot come, we invite you to send a birthday card.  Please contact Johanna or the church office for Marion's address.
