12:5

Many parts, one body

As a part of a new offering from the Office of Faith & Action, we've created a worship service called 12:5. This bi-weekly worship service is a campus-wide gathering - an encouraging time of Christian worship and community for students, faculty, and staff. The brief, 20-minute service includes lively music, a devotional message from other Cardinals, and some time to be the NCC family with one another. Lunch is provided after each service.

The name of this worship service and its purpose are rooted in Romans 12:5, which reads: “In the same way, though there are many of us, we are one body in Christ, and individually we belong to each other.”

 

For the duration of the 2019-2020 school year, 12:5 will occur every other Tuesday, beginning on August 27, 2019 during the Fall Semester and on January 14, 2020 during the Spring Semester. Each worship service is from 12:05-12:25 pm in Koten Chapel, Kiekhofer Hall.
