A Discipleship Journey with Northview Church

“The glory of this latter house shall be greater than of the former, saith the Lord of hosts: and in this place will I give peace.” Haggai 2:9

Made For More

We love being a part of what God is doing through Northview! The Holy Spirit is moving across our community, region, and world. Countless lives have been transformed all because of Jesus, and we believe we are just getting started! We are grateful for what God has done through us, yet we are Made for More. Today, we gather in this building because of the incredible sacrifice of those who have gone before us. We are living out the fulfillment of that dream.

It is a joy to experience God together as we now prepare for the future! Below, we share our plans to renovate our space to reach more people. We believe our impact extends beyond our four walls into our community and around the world. We are praying for more people to know Jesus and become like Him! We are honored to connect others to Jesus, His love, and what it means to follow Him. As you read through this content, intentionally ask God about your role. Ask the Holy Spirit to make it clear to you. We humbly invite you to join us on this adventure. We are Made for More!

Primary Goal

100%
Engagement

That every one of us would ask ourselves, "How is God asking me to participate with the Made For More initiative?"
Secondary Goal

$16.8 Million

Through your generosity, we will join God in MORE of what He is doing in three gospel-centered initiatives: Local, National, and Global

Local

We will reimagine our spaces through a significant building transformation. Reworking our kids area, worship center, and lobby spaces will enable us to welcome more families, impact more people through trainings and events, and create more space for deep connections and relationships. We will also continue stewarding our partnership with Fargo Public Schools to meet practical and spiritual needs in students' lives.

National

Among several national partnerships, we will continue to focus and increase support with Alaska Student Partnership. This organization is training teacher missionaries to serve 56 villages with little to no known gospel witness. The teachers meet the need for educators in the school system while bringing hope to these communities where many are living in poverty and among challenging home situations.

Global

Among several global missions partners, our priority partnership is with Child Hope in Latin America. Over the last 40 years, our church has helped build 20 schools in Nicaragua through our partnership with Child Hope. Through these schools, our missionary partners provide a consistent gospel witness through solid education, healthcare, and leadership training.

WHAT IS YOUR ROLE? 

Through the Made for More discipleship journey, God is using us to impact all of eternity. Our role is to lean in, listen to His voice and be obedient to what God is calling us to next. We are encouraging all of us to commit to MORE.

FAQs

What is the plan for church gatherings while the worship center is under construction?

We are committed to gathering together for Sunday services. The NVC team has tentative plans to gather for services in alternate space within our facility (eg. Gymnasium and/or Event Center). We are also open to adding an off-site option to create more space for people to gather on Sundays.

Will the church borrow money to complete the building elements of Made for More?

Northview does not currently have any debt, and ideally, we would complete this project without additional financing. However, financing may be considered and would be carefully navigated by the Northview Board and Financial Oversight Committee. We encourage anyone with questions to email boardofelders@northview.life for more information.

Can I change my automated giving?

If you wish to update your giving amount, you can do that here. We are using Pushpay to track commitments and progress at this link.

When will the construction on the Worship Center and lobby begin?

Our board of elders has set a threshold target of $4,690,000 cash in reserves to begin the Worship Center and lobby phase.

Is it too late to get involved with Made for More?

No, it's not too late! You can begin your journey TODAY by making a new commitment and tracking your giving progress here.

If I currently tithe or give regularly to the church, would it be best to include that giving toward the Made for More initiative?

Yes. Our Made for More initiative includes our whole vision, including church ministries/program/events, local and global missions/outreach, and building updates. One can think of it as a “unified budget to fund a unified vision.”

If I have questions about my giving, who should I ask?

You can always email give@northview.life for general questions. You may also contact Pastor Garrett Henrich (Executive Pastor of Finance/Operations) at Garrett.Henrich@northview.life.

How long will construction on the Worship Center and lobby take to complete once it begins?

A final construction timeline has not yet been established; however, we will continue gathering as a church family during that time.
