Hello members and friends of the Lincoln Northside and Holland Churches!

Benefit Concert
You are invited to participate in a benefit concert at Northside SDA Church (1800 N 73rd Street) on Wednesday, September 29 at 6:30pm. The concert will feature musical talents from the Lincoln area, and contributions made will go to support medical costs for 4 of our young adults who were involved in a recent motor vehicle accident.

Ministry Retreat
Mark your calendars! Lincoln Northside will be hosting a ministry retreat at Broken Arrow Ranch in Kansas on the weekend of October 29-31. Anyone who plans to continue or join in ministry at Northside this year in whatever capacity is invited to attend with their families. This weekend-long retreat will provide intentional opportunities for spiritual renewal and the strengthening of our togetherness in mission and ministry.
More information will be shared very soon, along with how to register.

Sponsorship Request
We have the opportunity to sponsor the gymnastics program at Highland Academy, where Lily and Linus Kuntz attend school in Tennessee. Highland academy has a very active gymnastic team that travels around the southeastern US as a part of their mission to promote not only the academy but also their love of Jesus. Lily and Linus have asked for the support of their home church. For a donation of 350.00 or more, Northside will be helping the young people enjoy something they love as they reach out to others. As a bonus, we get our name on a 3’ x 5’ banner that will hang in their gym! Mark your check and/or tithe envelope “Highland Academy” to support not only our young people but the whole academy. https://www.highland-academy.com/about-us/gymnix/

Thank you for your support
The Loma Linda, Worthington labels that are being collected in the lobby of the Northside church are increasing! We need to have $100.00 worth before we can send them in and we are at about $75.00 so we only need about 100 more labels. Don't throw them away! Stop, peal off that trash, and bring in that .25, and help us reach our goal!

AGAPE Feast
October 2 at 6:00 pm in the Better Living Center at Northside. Don't miss out on this special time as we remember the sacrifice that was made for us by our Savior, Jesus Christ. We look forward to seeing you there.

This Week's Offering
Our offering focus this week is Kansas-Nebraska Conference Advance. Offerings you make to Conference Advance go to support our conference scholarship fund, evangelism across our territory, youth and young adult ministries, and our Outlook magazine.
You may participate financially by giving to/through Lincoln Northside or Holland this week. Your tithe goes to support the work of the Lord across the conference (including your church), and your offering goes wherever you designate within the local church. As we trust in God our provider, may He continue to add rich blessings and multiply our gifts for the furthering of the gospel.

Northside Gathering Reminder
Based on the recent Directed Health Measures announced by our local health officials for the Lincoln-Lancaster area, we are asking all those attending any indoor gatherings on the Northside campus to plan on the appropriate use of a face mask. You can view the announcement from the link above for additional details. Northside is participating in this community effort as outlined in that document. Thank you for your help, and we hope to have you worship the Lord with us.

Connect Card
One of the ways we are hoping to stay in touch with you is through our online connect card. If you would like to get more involved at Northside or Holland or have a ministry suggestion for either church, there is a place on the card to indicate that, along with other ways that our community of faith can be your community too. Each filled-out card goes directly to Pastor Deneil by email, and based on your indicated preference, he will either pass it along to relevant ministry leaders or follow up with you confidentially. Either way, we will do our best to respond to you directly. Please do not journey alone.
