Mission Opportunities
| There will always be more people willing to do "great" things for God than there are people willing to do the little things. The race to be a leader is crowded, but the field is wide open for those willing to be servants. - Rick Warren |
It takes a tremendous amount of behind-the-scenes work each week just to provide a "place" for teaching, preaching, praying, worship, and fellowship. Many tasks are small ones that no one thinks about, but are vital to making things run smoothly. Don't wait to be asked....find out where God wants to use YOU to serve others for His kingdom at Northridge.

Anyone 62+ is invited to join
SAM's has a great ministry going on. This past year our very own SAM's Ministry visited the nursing homes twice. The members took gifts to our church shut-ins during the Christmas holidays and a blooming spring plant for their Easter gift. The group is also involved with the Baptist Samaritan Clinic by taking food to the volunteers, doctors, and nurses who give their time/services to Samaritan. Several members not only served food at the Soup Bowl but also gave out small gifts to the people who came in.
Margie, the President of SAM's is presently in the process of having pictures made around the church grounds and prayer garden of some of our flowers and trees to be made into note cards (blank inside) for a fundraiser to help towards mission work.
The ministry also has time for fun and fellowship. The group meets on the 3rd Thursday of each month. If you are 62+, please come join us!
