Our middle school team at College View Academy is excited about this year! By becoming more departmentalized, our 6th-8th grade teachers are specialized in their areas of expertise and interest as well as expanding our students' experiences by mixing together and sharing opportunities. This manifests itself in how classes are taught and assessed but also in other ways such as spiritual, social and physical programming. We are excited to have a number of unique opportunities already planned for our 6th-8th grade students. Just this past week the middle school students wrote encouraging messages on the sidewalk at CHI Health and they were featured on the evening news. CVA is blessed beyond measure to have Jeaneen Erickson (grade 6), Casey Prindle (grade 7) & Angela Heam (grade 8) teaching our middle school classes. Our year with the CVA middle school is off to a great start!

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!

This Week's Offering
Our offering focus this week is local church ministries. The Lincoln Northside and Holland churches are grateful for your faithful participation each week. We remain committed to service, and to proclaiming the praises of the One who has called us out of darkness into His marvelous light. Thank you for considering ways to support and be involved with this mission.
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.
