🌸Let Your Faith Bloom at NPC🌸 This Spring, stop by to worship, build community, and learn about Christ.

Second Sunday is Sandwich Making Day! Every month, after 11 am service, we make hundreds of sandwiches for Martha's Table, an organization that provides support to the DC community and families. Join us next time, on April 15th!

Today at 11 am was the memorial service for our dear Dr. Eleanor "Ellie" Frances Heginbotham. Her light and love will be missed, but never forgotten.

Today, we celebrated the Ordination of Rev. Kristin Franke! We are so proud of her and her journey with Christ! Looking forward to her bright future here at NPC!

We welcomed 15 new members today! Thank you to everyone who welcomed our growing congregation with open arms, kindness, and smiles, as we look forward to worshipping with you!

"Ashes remind us of our mortality and our need for God," writes Senior Pastor Dr. Hylton. Tonight, we gathered for Ash Wednesday, marking the beginning of Lent. Thank you for attending!

Join the Festival Choir for Palm Sunday! The first rehearsal is this Saturday at 10AM, with music by Felix Mendelssohn! To register, go to the link in our bio, press "Events"! See you there!

Mark your calendars for Ash Wednesday on Feb. 18th at 7 PM! As we look forward to Easter, stop by to worship and prepare ourselves for the season of Lent. ✝️ "Remember that you are dust, and to dust you shall return" - Genesis 3:19

Today, we celebrated and honored Dr. Quinn and Nancy Fox for their years of service at their Farewell Reception! And we appreciate everyone who attended to extend our thanks!

💝Happy Valentine’s Day from NPC! Today, we celebrate God’s gift of love in all its many forms.

🥞 Pancake Breakfast! Sharing God's Love with NPS Students!

During the coldest months of the year, join us every Sunday to warm up with the congregation, learn about faith, and worship together. It is weather like this that reminds us of the warmth that the community provides. See you every Sunday for our 8:45 am or 11 am services!

❄️ Due to weather concerns, our campus will be closed on Sunday. Instead, please join us online at 11 am (link in our bio) for worship! Please stay at home, safe, and warm. Also, feel free to send us snowy photos of you helping others or just some winter fun!

The final candle of Advent is upon us: Love. There is so much love that we are lucky enough to share as a community: our family, our friends, and our relationship with God. Love is one of the most important lessons that God has blessed us with. Share it in abundance!

Christmas Eve is a time to worship, celebrate, and be surrounded by community. Join NPC on this very special night at 8 pm or 10 pm for our candlelight service as we eagerly prepare for the birth of Christ!

Joy! That is this week’s theme as we light the third candle of Advent. As we celebrate and eagerly await Christ’s birth, reflect on the joy of this year. Please share and extend this lesson from God this week, and help us as we celebrate our joy (small or large) before Christmas!

A warm thank you to everyone who made our Handel’s Messiah Concert so very special. Thank you to every singer, performer, behind-the-scenes, and tech staff member who made this possible! And thank you to everyone in attendance for your support and presence!

All are welcome and no tickets are necessary to attend this joyful performance of Handel's Messiah to celebrate the holiday season. Please join us in the NPC Sanctuary this Sunday at 5pm!

This week, we lit the second candle of Advent, representing Peace! As we reflect on what’s personally brought us peace this past year -- also consider the peace we support, work towards, and pray for nationally and internationally.

I’m so grateful to have been able to attend an incredibly joyous holiday concert with Choralis at @NationalPres, Washington DC last night. The concert included a wonderfully uplifting world premiere of my ‘Rejoice and be merry’ for choir, brass quintet, organ and percussion.
