Baptism, Birthday, and BBQ

On Sunday, February 15th, Northwest Community Church will celebrate 5 years since we launched in Bella Vista, AR! We will celebrate 5 years of God's faithfulness and the life-change He has provided along the way.   Our birthday bash will be include stories of life-change, baptism, and of course a ton of bbq. Come join us on Sunday at 10am at Cooper Elementary in Bella Vista.  Be sure to bring a friend and plan to stick around for a great lunch together.


Over 6 years ago God began to lead 4 families to plant a church in Northwest Arkansas that would reach unchurched people and one day plant other healthy churches. Initially we did not know much about the process of planting a church but we knew a few things about Jesus. We knew that Jesus is always trustworthy. We knew that Jesus is the anchor of our lives. And we knew that Jesus was leading us to plant Northwest Community Church.  Those simple truths were enough for us to obey and begin the journey.

Along the way, God began to clarify the vision and mission for Northwest Community Church. Our vision became to lead people to experience a new life in Christ while our mission became to produce and release leaders who are fully devoted followers of Jesus Christ.  Over the past 5 years Northwest has stayed focused on fulfilling our vision and our mission and we have watched as God provide the people, resources, and changed lives necessary for a healthy church.  


In addition to the 3 B's on Sunday, we will wrap up our series entitled Why We Gather as we discover what it means to truly have Jesus as the anchor of life. Come prepared to worship, celebrate, and discover what your life is capable of when it is anchored to Jesus Christ.  My prayer is that God will produce and release hundreds of fully devoted followers of Jesus Christ from Northwest Community Church in the years to come…After all it's why we gather!
