About Northminster’s Blog
Our Community Conversation here is a summer experiment. How can we take the preaching experience from Sunday into our life/work weeks? Let’s keep the study going and move it into real conversation. Ask questions, dig deeper, and feel safe to disagree (in love, of course). In July, the content will all be managed by Elizabeth Lott. We’ll play around with that part as our experiment grows. See you in the comments section!

Trying to keep up with what and how the Lord’s work is progressing at Northminster. Think this is a great idea/tool. So sorry that there are folks who are NOT computer advantaged.
Perhaps we could also have some prayer walks in the community: praying for the people who abide in each house as we stand in front of it … or a business, too … that the Lord’s love would be known/experienced through the Lord’s family at Northminster. So many folks need the salvation of the Lord through Jesus.
Wonder what folks would believe if they knew the Lord’s anointed cared for them (and their souls) personally (not just as an institution). No one would knock on their door at this time. Perhaps a small card could be left at another time. Later, perhaps a small loaf of bread (denoting the Bread of Life) could be left hanging on the door knob.
We did have lists of names of people in our community at each address. (Maybe long gone by now, or changed a lot.) That would be helpful in praying specifically for the family who lives at each address.
We might need to pray for the Holy Spirit to precede these “walks” … to prepare the way …
Not sure just which Purpose Team might be involved with an endeavor like this.

Thanks for this time consuming ministry.

Thanks for your great input, Marcena. I love the idea of a prayer walk and have thought of that as a possible activity for my small group. Let’s talk soon about how we might organize something like that.
