Hello members and friends of the Lincoln Northside and Holland Churches!
Another week is coming to a close. I pray that the blessings of the Sabbath will provide meaningful perspective on the past week and confidence for the new one!
As you read this week's updates, it is my hope that you will be motivated to participate in various options of worship and fellowship with our church family.

Congratulations
Congratulations to Carl and Jenae Brugger. September 28, their family welcomed Baby Stellan. We pray a special blessing to this family. A Meal Train has been set up by the Thrive Family Chiropractic and we are participating with them rather than setting up a second Meal Train. To participate go to www.mealtrain.com/trains/40wo42

Northside Ministry Retreat
Thanks to those who have signed up so far! Lincoln Northside will be hosting a ministry retreat at Broken Arrow Ranch in Kansas on the weekend of October 29-31. This weekend-long retreat will provide intentional opportunities for spiritual renewal and the strengthening of our togetherness in mission and ministry.
We are planning to have accommodation costs covered for those who wish to attend, and plans are being made for the entire family, including children!
While we have had a number of people signing up for our upcoming retreat, there's still lots of space! If you are interested in being part of this, please fill out this form, and we will keep you informed as plans develop.

This Week's Offering
Our offering focus this week is Conference Evangelism. Each year the conference takes an offering that goes exclusively to funding the many evangelism events across our Conference. Please contribute and do your part to support the proclamation of the good news of Jesus and His soon coming!
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 updated 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 continue 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.
