NKMB is considering adding a Christ-centered Elementary school onto our existing church building. On behalf of church council, we are reaching out to the church for their prayerful feedback. The questionnaire helps us to discern God’s leading. All responses to this survey will be kept confidential.
Christmas Hamper Collection:

Women Connecting:
Come for tea & conversation every other Tuesday morning @ 9:30 -11:30am, in the MPR. Next meeting is Dec 10. Bring your handiwork or just come for the fellowship.
Sponsorship update
Sadly, Canadian Immigration has denied our request to add Gifty’s daughter Grace to Rita’s file. We will continue to support Gifty and Kador as they pursue options. We are grateful for the continued care given to Grace by Pastors Israel and Irene Moore. We are also requesting that Rita and her girls be booked on the first available flights when travel resumes in January. We are grateful that Sarah is regaining her strength as she awaits further tests.
Men’s Retreat:
Join us on February 7-9 at Red Rock Bible Camp for our annual men’s retreat. Cost and registration details coming soon.
Financial:
As we approach the end of our year, we thank God for His provision and grace over our church. As a finance committee, we are estimating that we will require approximately $145,000 of giving in December to meet all of our obligations. Please keep us in your prayers and thank you for your continued support for what God is doing here at NKMB.
Giving options at NKMB include cash, cheque, direct deposit, online and e-transfers: send to donations@nkmb.org
