LIVING OUT THE GOSPEL
The gospel isn’t to be cordoned off to an hour a week on Sunday mornings. The gospel—the truth of God’s free grace in Christ—transforms every dimension of our lives. God’s transforming grace in the gospel isn’t a shallow pool that barely gets our feet wet. It’s an ocean that we can never hit bottom on. Our women’s ministry at NPC seeks to help the women of the church dive ever deeper into the unsearchable riches of God’s grace in Christ (Ephesians 3:8), living out our unique calling as women, so that our hearts would be flooded with the very joy of Christ himself.
Women's Ministry Summer Potluck | Friday, June 19, 6:30-8:30 p.m.

Women's Ministry Summer 2026
As we enter the summer months of sunshine, rest and family fun, may God's Word be on your heart and mind. We are praying God continues to give you a desire to get to know him better through the study of his Word. We have compiled a short list of books and studies that can help you endeavor to keep steady in your growing relationship with him. We encourage you to gather neighbors, friends, and family members to study together over the summer to encourage each other and pray together.

Here is a podcast link with Pastor Dane reading the Psalms as well as the content from his book In the Lord I take Refuge. You can also access the podcast from any podcast provider; it is a Crossway production/book.

Titus 2 Discipleship [T2D]
Titus 2 Discipleship groups consist of 6-10 women who meet once a month to share, pray, and learn together. Each group has 1-2 facilitators. Though registration occurs each year, groups stay together for two (but no more than three) years to allow for deeper discipleship and richer relationships. There are various group offerings including: daytime, evenings, and Saturday mornings. Learn more and register here.
Women in Prayer
Prayer is our direct line of communication with God. He longs to hear what is on our hearts. Come join other women and pray for our church and her ministries. Meeting schedule: first and third Tuesday of each month, 9:30 a.m., in the den.
Women's Ministry Care Team
The NPC women's ministry care team exists to honor God by serving others with our time and resources. We first care for the needs of our church family and, as God provides, extend that care outside of our church body to our community. It is our privilege to be the hands and feet of Jesus, following his direction and wisdom as we serve his people. Contact the Care Team if you or someone you know needs assistance.
If you wish to support the Care Team in their efforts, complete the online form.
