What to Expect

Throughout my spiritual journey, I've attended many churches. Now a relatively new Christian, my main focus has been what does the Bible say and how do I apply what Jesus taught. I return to North Suburban Mennonite Church because the services are beautiful and meaningful, the congregation is Christ-centered in its teaching and application, and the members of the congregation and the lives they try to lead are role models for my own immature Christ-centered life.

Worship Services

One of the strengths of worship services at NSMC is the emphasis on shared leadership and participation. Planning a service involves a number of people, from the worship planning group to the worship leader, music leader, and musicians. We encourage creativity in the worship planning so that the gifts each member has to offer can be fully appreciated.

Music

At North Suburban, we are fortunate to have a large number of musically talented people and a strong commitment to music as an essential part of worship. A large group of people in our church volunteer to be music and song leaders.

Among the various instruments used in our services are piano, guitar, violin, clarinet, trumpet, trombone, and various percussion instruments.

For musical resources in the service, we rely on the Worship Book (the Mennonite Hymnal), Gather (published by GIA publications), our own North Suburban songbook, and other music as taught by individuals.

Members of the Worship Planning group coordinate resources and provide support for our musical efforts.

Morning Schedule

Worship starts at 9:30 a.m. followed by a fellowship time. Sunday school begins at 11:15 a.m.

What to Wear

Dress comfortably for our services because we are more concerned with you and not what you wear. Most people dress casually.
