Psalm 119:105
Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light for my path.

Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a workman who does not need to be ashamed and who correctly handles the word of truth.
All Scripture is inspired by God through the Holy Spirit for instruction in salvation and training in righteousness. We accept the Scriptures as the Word of God and as the fully reliable and trustworthy standard for Christian faith and life. Led by the Holy Spirit in the church, we interpret Scripture in harmony with Jesus Christ.
The vision of NNL's Children's Ministry is:
1. To work with the church community in welcoming and valuing children.
2. To teach children, God's way with age appropriate activities in worship, prayer, and Bible study.
3. To model love and unity in diversity within family of God by valuing language and culture.
4. To reach out in the neighborhood and invite children to learn about God and the gift of salvation.
From May to September the church has an Outreach Sunday each month where we have an outdoor service and a fellowship meal together. The Community Evangelism Ministry gets together the day before walking through the community inviting people to join in the service and meal. They also walk through and pray for the community.
In addition to the pastoral team, elders and spiritual shelter leaders are responsible for the spiritual life and pastoral care of the congregation. The pastoral team exercises leadership in calling elders and spiritual shelter leaders who are then affirmed by the congregation. Elders shall serve three year terms which are renewable.

Spiritual shelters are the primary, relational discipling groups in the congregation. Every member of the congregation is called to participate regularly (2 or 3 times a month) in a small group ministry of caring for and encouraging one another in the power of the Holy Spirit, studying the Scriptures and applying its teaching to daily living (Hebrews 10:25; Ephesians 4:16). Spiritual Shelters also function as prayer cells for friends, neighbors, the city of Norristown, and global missions. They are to be caring home groups that will welcome and disciple person who are not experiencing the love and closeness of God’s family.
