SALT Groups
Ladies’ Ministry
Do you ever wish for a safe place to grow in friendship with women who struggle just as much as you do? Well, that’s exactly the vision we have for our Ladies’ Ministry at North Raleigh Church of Christ. We are a group of women trying our best to love, support, encourage, and strengthen one another as we “do life” together.
We meet every Wednesday evening at 7:00 pm for a Bible Study. We are now meeting both at the building and virtually on Zoom! CLICK HERE for more information about our current study and how to join. This has become a special time of learning, support and encouragement as we share the stories of our lives, both our joys and our hurts, and grow together in Biblical understanding. We’d love for you to become a part of our group!
Quarterly Events (during a non-pandemic year)
- In the first quarter of each year, we host an outreach event. The 2020 event is a Senior Living Resource Fair entitled Living with Grace in the Golden Years. It was scheduled for March 28 2020, but had to be postponed due to the pandemic. We will announce a new date when it is again safe to host such an event.
- In the second quarter, we host a ladies’ beach retreat entitled Sisters at the Beach for women 21 or older. Unfortunately, the 2020 Retreat has been canceled due to the pandemic.
- In the third quarter, we host a retreat for our girls ages 16 – 20 at Kerr Lake.
- In the fourth quarter, we host a fall tea for ladies of all ages.
Children’s Ministry (NR KIDS)
We are now offering Sunday morning children’s classes on Zoom. Please click here for more information!
The programs below are currently suspended:
Sunday Morning Nursery
We offer a fully staffed nursery for babies, toddlers, and preschool children age newborn – 3 years.
Sunday Morning Kings Kids
Preschool children age 3 – 5 are invited to join us during the service for their own special class and worship experience!
Sunday Morning Jr. Worship
Kids K – 5th grade join us during the service for your own supercharged, dynamic worship experience!
Wednesday Evening Bible Class
On Wednesday evenings at 7pm, we offer a Bible class for kids of all ages!
Curriculum
We currently use D6 curriculum for NRKids! D6 empowers parents, home, marriages, teachers and churches to live out the story of Deuteronomy 6 (love God, love His Word, teach your children to do the same). The average student gets only one hour a week in discipleship—we say (as does Scripture), “It’s not enough!” D6 Curriculum gives solid lessons for teaching students how to make wise biblical decisions about everyday life. It further helps parents (and grandparents) reinforce lessons while at home, by providing weekly tools to help families. Weekly Home Connection sheets feature family readings, guidance for prayer, and two suggestions for family activities that explore the week’s Jr. Worship theme!
Compassion International
Our NRKids sponsor a child via Compassion International! Isai is 6 years old and lives in Honduras. Isai lives with his parents, likes chicken with rice, likes to sing, his favorite color is red, and he has a little turtle named Joddy. Our NRKids sponsorship provides Bible studies, Sunday school, health screenings, supplemental food, and more!
Background Checks
