Year End Events
Praise the Lord for each of you! It is that time of the year
again and we have a variety of activities planned. For starters, you
need to know that Thursday, December 31st, we will have our An-
nual New Year’s Eve Program at 7:00pm in the Family Life
Center. That will be followed by our first Worship Service of the
New Year at 12:30am. We will then par take in our Annual New
Year’s Breakfast beginning at 1:00am on January 1, 2016. We
encourage each member to make plans to attend and bring your
family. Let’s start the new year off the way we want to end this
current year; with our family in the presence of God.
We plan all of these activities because we realize that during
this time of the year there are a lot of members, new members spe-
cifically, who desire to be apart of something during the holiday.
We also realize that there are members whose families do not at-
tend Church regularly but those family members will attend spe-
cial programs during this time of year. Many of them make resolu-
tions and are seeking to get their lives right with God, so we plan
activities to try to accommodate them and teach them the gospel.
Just as with everything we do, we strive to save souls and help
souls stay saved. May God bless us all in the new year!

It is an honor to have you join us in worship at the
Northside Church of Christ! Our mission is to save
souls and to help souls stay saved. We extend our
sincere love towards you and we encourage you to take
advantage of the opportunity to have a bible study with
members who are eager to study with you. If you do not
share our like faith, this bible study, as well as your visit
today, offers a two way opportunity: (1) We have the
chance to share with you the gospel of Jesus Christ and
the essential steps to salvation. (2) You have the chance
to hear, believe, repent, confess, and be baptized where-
by being added to the Church of Christ. We welcome
you to investigate what you hear and see today. You
will be able to ask your biblical questions and receive
biblical answers that will guide you to make an in-
formed, life changing decision. Thank you for being our
special guest! Please come again.

Did You Tell Someone About Jesus?
Matt. 28:19-20 is the great
commission given to members of
the body of Christ. As Christians,
it is our responsibility to Tell,
Talk and Teach others about
Jesus. Telling someone about
Christ will often open the door to
Talk with them about Him. You
can then Teach them or invite
them to Church where they can be
taught. We encourage each Chris-
tian to take advantage of such
opportunities. If you know of a
prospect, and for some reason
cannot conduct a personal Bible
study, please give their contact
information to Bro. and/or Sis.
Oliver or to one of our Leaders.
Welcome to the Family!!
