The Update

Hey everyone, just a reminder that there will be no Video Update today because Luke is on vacation. We’ll catch you next Tuesday for a brand new episode.

In the meanwhile you can check out past episodes here.

Each year at the New Year’s Party everyone is invited to write a letter to themselves. Those letters are then sealed up, and they get mailed back to you a year later, many of you should have gotten those letters last week.

We did the same thing this year, but I want to give everybody a chance to participate, it’s a pretty sweet experience to see what you were going through a year ago and what has happened since. There are a few ways you can participate.

1) Download the page to write your letter, write it, and bring it with on Sunday in an envelope with your address.

2) Get a copy of the page and an envelope on Sunday and bring it back to The Table or The Gathering.

3) Fill out this form and submit it, your letter will then be printed and put in an envelope to be sent back to you at the end of the year.

This can be a very insightful experience, but it all depends on what you write, the more you explain your feelings about things now, the more you’ll be able to see the change in the coming year. Enjoy!

Wednesday nights are back. The Gathering (the midweek meeting for Junior High students) starts tomorrow night!

We are meeting at our new location, the Cases’ home in Maple Grove. We meet from 6:30pm – 8:30pm each week for great conversations and a bit of a ruckus. It’s a blast!

For directions to the Cases’ and more information just head on over to The Gathering website,

It’s the last weekend of summer and it looks like it will be a gorgeous one. Weather in the low 80s, sun shining down on us, the Troutens taking over the service at Northwood.

Wait what?

Yep, it’s a Trouten Trifecta with worship, FaithStory, and the message all including Northwood’s only best youth pastor and his wife.

Katie Trouten will be on the Worship Team this Sunday, as well as sharing her FaithStory. Luke will be dishing up some Bible goodness by delivering the message.

All this means two things.

1) There will be no youth group this Sunday, it’s Labor Day weekend and we’re giving the youth staff a well earned break before school starts.

2) You won’t want to miss church!

See you on Sunday!
