Our mission is:
2022 was a hard year for our church with the death of our Senior Pastor’s wife Janna. While this was a painful season, God has done a great restorative work in our Pastor and has used this time of brokenness to realign his heart and refine the mission & vision of our church. Looking back, we can see how God has been realigning NPC back to His plan & vision for the last couple of years. (Watch message 09.10.2023 for more context) We are now in the process of staffing & structuring for the vision & growth that God has laid out for us. In late October, we are launching 3rd Service due to our recent rapid growth! God is clearly at work – Changing Lives! We are praying for God to send us co-laborers to partner with us in this ministry vision! Perhaps God is calling YOU to this vision!
