For a child has been born for us, a son given to us;
authority rests upon his shoulders, and he is named
Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. ~ Isaiah 9:6
This season we again gather in worship to celebrate that God came to the earth in the form of a baby. All are welcome!

The prophets don’t describe a cozy Christmas countdown; they describe a world waiting in darkness — anxious, divided, uncertain about the future.
Into that world, Isaiah dares to proclaim that God is not done. Our Advent series is "When God Breaks Through." Services are at 9:30 a.m. in the Sanctuary and online and 11:00 a .m. in the Ministry Center and online each Sunday.

We will gather in the Sanctuary and online at 8 p.m. for our traditional candlelight service. This service features carols interspersed with the reading of the Christmas story, as well as special music from the choir, and a pastoral message. The service concludes with the candlelight singing of Silent Night.
December is a busy time at Northwest with a variety of opportunities to connect with the community as well as to give and serve.

Again this year we are collecting new toys, books, and puzzles for the Church for All People Christmas Shop. Donations can be brought to the church and placed in the bin in the Hall. Use the button below for a list of suggested donations. All donations must be at the church by Sunday, December 14.
Each year we work with partner organizations to identify families that could use some extra support this holiday season. Gift tags are available in the Hall for people to pick up, shop, and then return gifts to the church. Contact the church office for more information.

The holidays aren't always an easy time of year, especially for those who are grieving. If you are having a hard time feeling the joy of the season, this service is a reminder that it's ok to feel how you feel in the midst of the lights and celebrations. All are welcome.
