Look to Jesus as Your Model for Hospitality
A 7-Session Study by Jen Schmidt
Hospitality is one of the best ways to live out the two greatest commandments: loving God with all your heart and your neighbor as yourself. But often we get caught up in perfecting our homes and conversations before we open our doors.
Over 7 sessions, look to Jesus as your model for hospitality. Discover how He lived a life full of interruptions, yet always welcomed people and invited them to follow Him. Learn to replace cultural expectations with biblical hospitality to create a legacy of invitation and reflect Jesus through simple acts of service.

Lottie Moon Christmas Offering
Lottie Moon Christmas Offering – Supporting Missionaries Around the World
Each year, Northport Baptist Church participates in the Lottie Moon Christmas Offering, a special giving emphasis that directly supports Southern Baptist missionaries serving through the International Mission Board (IMB).
Every penny given goes straight to the mission field—providing resources, training, and support for missionaries who are sharing the gospel, planting churches, and meeting physical and spiritual needs among unreached peoples.
This offering is one of the primary ways we partner in taking the good news of Jesus to the nations. Your generosity helps send and sustain missionaries in places where the gospel is rarely heard.
We invite you to pray, give, and join us in supporting this vital work as we help carry the message of Christ to the ends of the earth.
Learn more about the Lottie Moon Christmas Offering or give online at: https://www.imb.org
