A SEASON OF GRATITUDE, GROWTH AND FAITH
With Sunday morning services consistently at or above capacity, the elders and leadership have decided - as a way to better minister to the people God is bringing to Northbridge Community Church - to pilot a Saturday evening service to create additional space on Sunday mornings. This new worship service will begin Saturday, February 7, 5:30pm.
Please note there will be no childcare for this service.

Other News
Sanctity of Human Life Month
January is Sanctity of Human Life Month. Northbridge Community Church will wrap up collecting items for New Life Family Services on Sunday. Please bring any donations to the church this Sunday.
Women’s Ministries
Come alongside other women every Tuesday, beginning February 3 as we study the book of Genesis. Witness image bearers who sin and wrestle to maintain trust in the only One who will fulfill every promise, the One for whom nothing is too hard. We will learn to see Jesus through the stories of His people and discover how the God of creation and covenant is the same yesterday, today, and forever.
Sign up now and join us this week for brunch (morning) or supper (evening).
The Gathering Table
The Gathering Table is an opportunity to gather with NCC women monthly for a meal and fellowship. Sign up now through February 15 to meet March, April and May.
Men’s Ministries
New Men’s Bible Study
The Men’s Bible Study will be starting a new book study, Raising a Modern Day Knight, on Tuesday, February 3 from 6:00 to 7:30. More times and dates may be added if the group gets big enough. This will be a 13-week study, and the suggested donation is $15 to cover the book and study guide that will be included.
Please see the video link below on our upcoming book study and use the other button to sign up. Please join us! If you have any questions, feel free to call 507.259.7835 (Aaron Ellringer, Elder).
Cars and Coffee
Coming Saturday May 9th, and continuing the 2nd Saturday of every month thru October.
8am - 11am at the Church
All years, make and models are welcome!

Men’s breakfast
Join the men of Northbridge for breakfast on February 7th at 7:30 am.
Men’s Ministry Wilderness Trip
If you have any interest in a potential to head North this summer to the Boundary Waters for a Men's Canoe/Camping Trip, please join me on Saturday, February 7, at 9am, after the Men's Breakfast for the initial planning meeting. A Boundary Waters trip has always been on my bucket list, and I have zero knowledge on how to plan a trip there, so, I need your help! I think this would be a great opportunity to build strong relationships within the Men's Ministry group. We’ll meet in the foyer.
Aaron Ellringer, NCC Elder
Stand Firm & Act Like Men

More information and sign up coming out soon.
