WHAT TO EXPECT THIS SUNDAY
This Sunday we will continue to have three ways to celebrate the Gospel. First, you can choose to attend our 9am service and wear your mask as you are coming into and out of the building and during our time of worship, or you can attend our 10:30am service where masks will be suggested and finally, we will continue to offer our online service at 10:30am via northwestbible.com/live, Facebook or YouTube. For children's ministry, you will need to make a reservation for their class and send all children into their classrooms with masks at the 9am service. You can make your reservation each week at northwestbible.com/children. We are looking forward to celebrating with you this Sunday as we will conclude our series, The Gospel of God, with Romans 16.
NEXT SUNDAY GLOBAL TRAINING NETWORK HIGHLIGHT
Join us as we welcome guest speaker Bill Wright from the Global Training Network. Bill joined GTN in 2009 where he trains pastors and church leaders in Uganda, Rwanda, and the D.R. of Congo. Bill began with twenty students in Uganda and twenty students in Rwanda. From 2009 to 2019, by God's grace, he will have seen nearly 1,000 graduates from three countries. Bill will share with us the mission and vision for the GTN.
