In honor of Mother’s Day, the NorthPark Mission Committee has chosen charities focusing on women’s issues. We invite you to participate in this endeavor starting Monday, May 8 through Monday, May 15.
If you are attending Worship on May 14, you can pick up a marble and drop it into the jar associated with the charity of your choice. For online participation, simply select one of the five charities chosen by the NorthPark Mission Committee listed below.
