Northside Presbyterian Church

Weekly eUpdate

July 30, 2025

Coming Sunday and Beyond

Linda will preach on “Jesus Loves the Little Children” and we will celebrate communion. Robin Begnoche & Marya Katz will sign "Hymn of Promise" for our special music. It is Card Care Sunday.


After church, we will have Lemonade on the Lawn (or in the Narthex depending on the weather).


Save the Date: The Northside Deacons are celebrating Lou Brown’s 99th birthday on Sunday, August 10, at 2:00 in the Game and Craft Room at English Meadows. We cordially invite all friends of Lou to attend! (No gifts, please.)


Lemonade on the Lawn

We are continuing with lemonade on the lawn. This requires one to set out a table, put out the lemonade (found in the refrigerator in the kitchen) and cups, and clean up. There is a sign-up sheet in the narthex for those who want to help with this fellowship event.


There are open dates in July and August. Thanks to those who already signed up.

Enjoy the Garden


The Garden of Remebrance is in its second growing season and is in full bloom. Stroll down after church or stop by at any time to enjoy the space. Benches will be installed later this summer.
