I can preach? Yes You CAN!

2/3/2026

Dear Northminster,

​This Sunday we are trying out something new: Learn How to Preach with Pastor Chris Hallam. I will be meeting with folks before worship at 9:30 am and after worship at 12:15 pm in my office to discuss how to write a sermon. I have broken down my personal sermon writing process into bite-sized chunks and spread them out over three workshop days. Click here to see the packet that we will be working through as a group.

Everyone is invited regardless of your interest, or lack there of, in preaching this sermon after you have written it. This is workshop designed to help you learn the skill of how to tell your own stories of faith.
Currently, there are not enough people signed up for the Wednesday morning Zoom offering to run that class. If you are interested in that time, please let Pastor Chris know ASAP!

And if you are entirely uninterested in learning how to preach, let alone doing in, please consider donating an extra $200 this year. That is the cost of hiring Pulpit Supply for one Sunday. By donating a little extra, you are supporting Northminster’s Sunday service and you are giving me the peace of mind that Northminster will be in good hands while I am on my maternity leave. Thank you in advance!

But with that folks, one more quick update for you all:
We have offered the office assistant job to our top candidate and she has accepted! We are now in the final stages of contracts, background checks, and start dates. We are excited to introduce you all to her shortly!

Blessings, 
Pastor Chris
