Hi all, a lot of stuff going on around here so let me see if I can bring everyone up to date.

Yesterday we spent several hours putting together the new set for KidMo and it looks terrific! We had our largest group of volunteers yet and we really go most of it done, we hope to post some pictures this week as well. Of course the whole church smells like paint, but that should dissipate soon.

In the worship center they are busy putting up the new screens and projectors and should be done this week. It is going to make a major impact on our worship time as we will be able to see the Cross during the entire service that stands above the baptismal.

We have created a men's softball team that starts playing the first week of April. Hopefully we will have all the players we need but it looks to be a lot of fun and an opportunity to invite new people to be part of NCC.

As we head into Spring it is exciting to watch God do amazing things with nature and with this church. We are continuing to be blessed by new families and friends who are becoming a part of our fellowship. We are trying our best to train them as disciples through our Sunday morning education program that started a new set of classes this week. The response and quality of teaching remains high and we are optimistic that people will continue to grow and be excited about their faith.

We have also moved our Sunday night services to a Friday evening prayer time. It is our hope and intention that Sunday evening becomes family time. In our culture our time has been stretched and we don't allow time for our family or take a true Sabbath. Pray that our families use this opportunity to grow together in their faith.
