A Word from Pastor Mark
As our city is going through even more unprecedented times, Pastor Mark has an encouraging word for us.
It’s amazing to hear all of the stories of how the people of Northview are serving this community in so many ways. As a church we are working with our community partners and will have more opportunities for you to get involved during the many weeks and months of relief that are ahead of us.
Upcoming Opportunities
We will be updating this section with opportunities for our church family to get involved and help those affected by the flood.
Samaritan's Purse Disaster Relief
We are privileged to partner with Samaritan’s Purse Disaster Relief in aiding homeowners in cleaning up their homes and neighbourhoods. Click the link below to sign up to serve our community during this time of need.
Clean-up volunteers will be provided with PPE, tools, and be led by a trained Samaritan’s Purse staff member. Lunch is provided. Must be 16 years or older to help and be willing to do manual labour in cleaning people’s homes.
Affected homeowners can call 1-833-738-7743 to receive help with the clean-up.
Mennonite Disaster Service Canada
MDS Canada is looking for volunteers to serve for a week at a time in Princeton, BC between January 10 – 28. Volunteers will be mucking out flooded homes. MDS volunteers will be staying at RockRidge Canyon, where meals and accommodations will be provided.
At this time we are requiring that volunteers be fully vaccinated against COVID-19 in order to help us follow health and safety protocols.
For more information or to sign up please contact Kelsey Friesen at kfriesen@mds.org or by calling the MDS Canada office at 204-261-1274 or 866-261-1274.
Pray
For those affected by the flood. Pray for those that know the Lord that He will comfort and strengthen them in this time. And pray for those who don't, that this might be an opportunity for them to be drawn to and come to know the Lord in this time.
Step Into Action
One life at a time we as the Church can love and help our neighbours and community. We encourage you to reach out to neighbours, friends, and family. See if there is a need you can help them with. This is your opportunity to be the Church.
We're Here to Help.
If you or someone you know is need of help, reach out to our Care team at care@northview.org and we will be in-touch. We can help in connecting you to resources available to us and those in the community.
