Local Church: Sevenoaks Alliance Church 2. Missionaries: Brian and Bety Heppner • Children of Hope Children of Hope is an organization that primarily works with orphanages in Mexico. Currently we have 4 Christian-run children’s homes that we are involved with. Our goal is to serve our Lord Jesus Christ by giving children opportunities for a better life in our orphanages. Through godly teaching and principles, children are given the tools and training they need to be responsible citizens in their communities. One of the ways we provide training is by sending groups of Canadians down on short term missions trips. We would love for you to consider joining us. Please pray for the 170 children in these homes as most of them come from backgrounds of abuse, abandonment, or are orphaned. Information Helimission Info Night October 17 in Center Court from 6:30 - 9:00pm. How does the gospel get to the unreached? Come hear stories of God’s grace in using helicopters to bring the good news to those who have never heard. Contact Kevin Peters at kpeters@ northview.org. This is a free event with refreshments. Baptism Service The Benediction Why does Northview have a ‘Benediction’ verse at the end of the service? The blessing of the believers at the close of the service is a very important part of our time together. As we finish the service, the work of worship gives way to the sending out of the saints to continue in service of ministry, equipped and empowered to do the ‘work of the people’ in mercy, witness, and justice. We go our separate ways as the hands and feet of Jesus and are sent out to be the Church in the World. So, far from being merely an act of dismissal, it is a symbol of assurance spoken over us that God is with us...Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. We are not sent out alone among wolves, but in the power and authority of God. So receive it with joy! And go in confidence that this week you will walk, talk, and act in His name. “May the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you all.” (2 Corinthians 13:14) -Pastor Johnny Markin Please join us on October 18 at 5:30pm for a special Baptism Service.
