December 3: TrueKidz Christmas Family Pajamarama

TrueKidz wants to kick off the Christmas season with your family! Get your pajamas on and join us on Friday, December 3 at 6:30pm for a night of Christmas fun at the TrueNorth Campus. There will be hayrides, inflatables, hot cocoa, cookies, and more. The night will end with a movie on the big screens outside and inside. You don’t want to miss this Christmas event for the whole family!

Next Sunday: New Series, All I Want For Christmas Is…

As children we were often asking one another, “What do you want for Christmas?” We hoped to see some of those special gifts we desired around the tree. This Christmas God asks us, “What do you want for Christmas?” He is a Father who desires to give us His perfect gifts. Gifts that bring us hope, peace, and joy in a world that often seems so dark. Join us in December as we open the gifts God offers us this Christmas.

Next Sunday: Baptism Classes

Baptism is a Next Step in your journey of faith after accepting Christ. When a person is baptized we see it as a celebration of life change. If you are considering being baptized, we invite you to attend one of the baptism classes offered on Sunday, December 5 at 9 or 10:45am in the Care Room off the atrium.

If your child is in the fifth grade or under please call the church office (803.279.1555) to make an appointment to meet with our children’s pastor, Kayla Martin.

More information on baptism time and location will be provided in class.

For the One Pledges

The mission of TrueNorth Church is to lead people into a passionate relationship with Jesus Christ. Since TrueNorth launched in 2004, the words of Jesus in Luke 15 have defined who we are and what we are about. “Suppose one of you has a hundred sheep and loses one of them – what do you do? You leave the other ninety-nine sheep in the pasture and go looking for the one that got lost until you find it” (Luke 15:4).

For The One is a two-phase capital campaign. The first phase was designed to generate $1.3 million to begin the loan process with our lender. We have completed phase one thanks to the generosity of our incredible church! In phase two, we will be generating the funds necessary for future construction costs. Our leadership team is currently praying and evaluating when the construction process will begin.

Your commitment to this goal helps us plan for our future. To complete a digital pledge card, click here or text PLEDGE to 803.279.1555.

2021 Bible Reading Plan

Follow along with TrueNorth’s Bible Reading Plan as we walk through the entire New Testament in 2021. Our plan is designed so that you read one chapter during the week and a short selection from Psalms or Proverbs on the weekends. Pick up a copy of the TrueNorth Bible Reading Plan on campus, download a digital copy from our website here, or follow along through the digital resource on the TrueNorth App.

We are selling NLT Slimline Bibles for $10 and NLT LifeApp Study Bibles for $50 if you wish to read via a non-digital format.

Book Overviews: As we continue on our 2021 Bible Reading Plan together, we will be publishing a brief overview of each book. In less than 5 minutes you will have a quick grasp of what you will be reading, who wrote it, and why it was written. Our desire is that it helps you know your Bible better and get more out of your time in it.
If you would like to receive outlines as they are released, sign up here.
