OUR INVITATION TO YOU: The people of Northern Hills Baptist
Church join in welcoming you. We invite you to share in the
various activities of Worship, Bible Study and Ministry which our
church offers. If you do not have a Church Home where you are
actively in Christian Service, you may feel the Spirit’s leading to
make this your church. If so, we invite you to present yourself for
membership by:
• A Profession of Faith & Baptism
• A Letter from another Church
• A Statement of membership in
another church where you have
accepted Christ as Savior and
have been baptized by immersion.
WHEN TO COME FORWARD: You are invited to respond at the close
of the service when the Pastor offers an open invitation for you to
come forward and make your decision known. If you are in doubt
about anything, you may come forward and someone will be happy
to counsel with you.

Dear Church Family, How big is the word THANK YOU when it
expresses the love and support a church body has given to its
staff? Your heart of generosity and faithfulness through 2014 and
the holidays has allowed us to truly experience the word “Church
Family”! With love and appreciation, Your Staff
__________________________________________________________
From My Heart . . . . As 2014 continues to disappear further and
further into the rearview mirror, I’m reminded of the words of the
Danish Theologian Soren Kierkegaard when he said, “Life must be
lived forward, but can only be understood backward.” Such is faith,
so obvious to look back upon, yet so anxious to step out into. But
oh how sweet its’ taste to the spiritual tongue. Yet is it not the very
way our Lord teaches us to walk? “The just shall live by faith.”
Romans 1:17b
When we begin to attend the banquet of faith God calls us to, it is
so glorious . It’s as if we were “born again” all over again.
Please Lord, as we your Church continue to step into this new
dimension of time called 2015, let us release new ideas and creative
thoughts in faith through the gifts you have given each of us. In so
doing, the love story of “Christ in us, the Hope of Glory” is alive in
the hearts of all of us.
Lanny Rawdon, Director of Worship
