The Update

Northwood Student Life proudly sponsors a child through Compassion International. Her name is Melanie, and she lives near the Pacific coast in Ecuador. Each month we have a “Bring Your Buck” Sunday where students are encouraged to bring at least 1 dollar toward her monthly adoption of $32. The proceeds all go to help Melanie get an education, receive food and healthcare, and learn about how much she is loved by Jesus! Pretty good for less than a cost of a soda, huh? So please bring a dollar this Sunday and get to either Jason Dyer (Senior High leader) or Luke Trouten (the bearded fury). It’s not that hard to change a life.

Leslee Sherk (Northwood’s Children’s Pastor) is looking for some help watching kids after church on February 24^th while the adults are at the Northwood Annual Meeting. If you can help out please e-mail me as soon as possible (luke.trouten@northwoodcc.org) or Leslee (leslee.sherk@northwoodcc.org) and let us know. Thanks!
