Church Operations Keep Rolling The building may be closed, but your Northminster office and facility staff are still busy. We are experiencing both a new reality and constancy, just as you are. Here’s how we are keeping things rolling. (Read more...) Memory of the Week Remember when we could actually get together in the same place? Here’s a Northminster memory from Jennifer Dzwonar: Around 2005, in the Peyton Manning era, Teri was doing a wonderful Children’s Moment on Jesus being baptized in the river by John the Baptist. Teri is dramatically acting it out, and when she raises her arms, as John did, with the dove descending on Jesus, she said, “And John the Baptist said to Jesus …” and a child knowingly responded, “Touchdown!” And the crowd went wild! Do you have a special Northminster memory that you haven’t already submitted for our 75th Anniversary—an event, a moment, a personal gesture? Something funny, poignant, inspiring? Just a paragraph or two? If so, please email it to John Purcell. The Pipe Organ was Delivered! If you missed the delivery and unloading of the truck on March 1st, see photos and video here.
