2020-2021 School Year Theme
Christmas Service & Program DetailsNCA students and teachers have been hard at work preparing for this year’s Christmas Service/Program. The grades 3-8 service will be December 17 at 6:30 PM. VPK-grade 2 program will be December 18 at 10:30 AM. In order to keep the focus on the message of Jesus’ birth, dress pants/khaki slacks or appropriate length skirts/dresses are recommended. School uniforms are also acceptable - no shorts, please. Due to current COVID precautions and the number of participating students, only two (2) visitors, per participating child, will be able to attend in-person. Our sanctuary has limited seating options and we cannot accomodate 6 feet of physical distance between all family groups. Therefore, all visitors will need to wear a face covering while in the building. We will be following our health safety plan and requiring those who are not feeling well to stay home. Temperatures will be checked for all those in attendance. For those unable to attend, we will be live streaming on our Northdale Lutheran Church YouTube channel where the recording will also be archived to view anytime. Thank you for your understanding as we share the joy of Jesus’s birth in a responsible manner. For the grades 3-8 Christmas Service on Thursday, December 17, students are asked to meet in the main school building no later than 6:10 PM, doors will open at 6:00 PM. If you have any questions about the service/program please ask your child’s teacher. Thank you!
Mission OfferingsMission offerings for the new church in Wesley Chapel this week: $33.71; school year total: $673.64. Thank you for your generous support of this year’s mission project!
