Sermon series

Lenten Series- Jesus Prays

It was after observing Jesus in prayer that the disciples asked Jesus, “Lord, teach us to pray” (Luke 11:1). One way to learn about prayer is to study the teachings of Jesus on prayer (like the Lord's prayer.) Another way is to observe Jesus at prayer. The gospels record many instances of Jesus praying, including some of his actual prayers. This sermon series will look at those prayers of Jesus, and like the disciples, perhaps we'll learn to pray.. or at least want to pray more.

For some time now, we have been using the "Connections" study guides by CDS Connections Our worship plan is coordinated in advance so that study guides are made available to go along with the weekly sermon message each week. The study includes material for individuals as well as small groups so that everyone can get the most out of the weekly message.

Chancel Choir

Music is a vital part of our worship experience. Raising a voice in song is a blessing to all who hear it. Why not consider singing God's praises with the NPC Chancel Choir? We seek to increase our numbers and improve our skills by meeting you in Sunday morning worship and Wednesday evening rehearsals, gatherings filled with fun, laughter, and learning. If you are not sure that choir is right for you, ask Chris Wallhausser or a current choir member what the program is like. We all pitch in to encourage one another and sing joyfully. So come, join in the joyful song!
