Support for CVA
We thank the Lord for His continued blessings at College View Academy. Enrollment is trending upward (197 last year, 214 this year), and plans continue to be developed to serve the students, staff and community in the best way possible. Let us continue to prayerfully support our school.
Here's one way we can support. The Middle School at CVA is hosting a fundraiser on September 7 from 10:30a-9:00p at Panda Express located on Pine Lake Street. If you plan to order in person, you need to show a print/digital copy of the flyer. If ordering online, you need to enter this unique promo code 327191 for us to receive credit. The Middle School (grades 6-8) is raising money for some fun field trips this year!

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 Update
For any who might be wondering, church remains open for physical gatherings of worship! 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 plans to participate 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.
