NVC is honored to be helping the Village of Atwater by participating in the setup of the 100 year celebration of our home in LA. On top of sending in volunteers to help setup, NVC is also hosting a booth where people can plant their own seed in soil and a cup provided by the church. What a great opportunity to serve the neighborhood in which we are so thankful to be a part. Don’t miss the event… June 13, from 11am to 6pm on the 3100 block of Glendale blvd. in Atwater.

Former founder of Invisible Children, Bobby Bailey, joined NVC on Friday night to show his new documentary called When the Night Comes. The film spurred conversations for what it means to be a people a part of the story of ridding Malaria, the most deadly disease in the history of humanity, from Africa, by 2015.

Bobby Bailey helped to found Invisible Children, a non-profit that aided in rescuing child soldiers in Uganda. Bobby now has a new project called When the Night Comes. In this new film Bobby investigates malaria in Africa and the work that we can do to end this epidemic. Please join us at Jamison Brown Coffee to view the film, raise awarenss and raise support at 7pm on Friday, June 4.

Northland Village Church will be the first of many church plants showcased on spreadingstories.com. Jordan Watson, founder of the website, found that there were many websites that produced resources for new church plants, but few that shared the stories of emerging communities. Spreadingstories.com will simply share the stories of real churches, really digging into the life of a community. Be sure to check out the site on May 3 for the launch.
