| You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind. This is the greatest and first commandment. And a second is like it: You shall love your neighbor as yourself. Matthew 22:37-40
Your financial gifts, prayerful support and hands-on work make a tangible difference in the lives of our neighbors at home and around the world! As a congregation we touch hearts, meet urgent needs and share the Good News of Jesus Christ through our mission giving.
Volunteering - Our best resources are our time, energy, talents, effort, passions and abilities. A joyous part of our responsibility is to use these gifts well on behalf of those in need. How we manage these resources in a large part defines who we are. We can match your interests and talents with the needs of one of our mission partners, so you can make a difference in the lives of others. You can be a mentor, tutor, house builder, painter, board member, teacher, visitor, caregiver, workday or mission trip participant and more.
Additionally, Northbrook Presbyterian Church designates 10% of its annual budget to the Mission Connection Committee to distribute as well as all other gifts given to the church. The committee also raises money for mission throughout the year through the five offerings of the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) with a percentage of some of these offerings used for missions in our local area, as well as through fundraisers like the Chili Cook-off or Ice Cream Social.
The brochure available below describes the many mission activities at Northbrook and the mission organizations that we support. If you would like further information on this contact the church at 248-642-0200.
