Here at Northwest, we believe that relationships are one of the primary ways we develop into mature followers of our Lord. That’s why we are investing in small groups, strengthening existing groups, and launching new ones. Christ has been moving in the hearts of many of our people, calling them to facilitate small groups. We hope you will consider where he is leading you to get involved.
  

Small Groups
  

*NEW* Parenting Class
Sundays – 9:00 AM – Pastor Paul’s office – Begins September 14
Parenting is one of the greatest joys, and one of the greatest challenges, that God gives us. At times it can feel like we’re walking through unknown territory, unsure if we’re doing the right thing or making the right decisions. If you’ve ever felt that way, you are not alone. This fall, Pastor Paul and Melissa Springer invite all parents to join a special class that they will lead together. Beginning Sunday, September 14 at 9:00 AM, we’ll be walking through Parenting: 14 Gospel Principles That Can Radically Change Your Family by Paul David Tripp (cost $14).
