The Truth Transforms Website

This online ministry takes you to another website, "to make, foster and grow disciples of Christ". The website presently has a series of ten podcasts created by Bob Chambers entitled, "The Message and Mission of Jesus Christ". There are also study outlines (24 lessons) suitable for use in evangelism, and four YouTube videos that you will find thought provoking!

The hope and prayer is that this website will serve as a resource for three groups of people:

1) Those who might be interested in hearing the Gospel of Jesus and learning more about how to obtain salvation (including a podcast devoted to the subject of baptism).

2) Those who might like a refresher course in the foundations of our faith.

3) Those who might like to prepare themselves to teach the Gospel to others.

Click anywhere on the slide above to visit the website, view the podcast titles and listen to the messages of interest. Study outlines (24 lessons) are also available and suitable for evangelism. We encourage you to also view the thought provoking YouTube videos. If you have any questions about the information presented, please feel free to contact Bob Chambers through his website contact page (by clicking Contact on the dashboard) or calling the church office at 505-256-7389.

The ACCH Annual Holiday Affaire Benefit Dinner & Auction will be held November 10. We are in need of items for the “Silent Auction”.

Satellite School of Sunset International Bible Institute (Important Update)

Netherwood Park Church of Christ is hosting the Greater Albuquerque Bible Institute, a satellite school of Sunset International Bible Institute. The aim of biblical education is to train men and women in the gifts and skills of communication so that they can effectively share their faith and knowledge through preaching, teaching and example. If you wish to audit the classes, there is no cost, however you will be required to buy a book. If you wish to take the class for credit, for a certificate of Advanced Biblical Studies or for a Bachelor’s degree, there is a tuition fee. Please contact Britton Pruitt (via the office) for information regarding registration, fees and the schedule for classes.

Important Note:

Classes will resume for SIBI satellite school on  September 5th at 7:00pm. We will be studying the Minor Prophets with Richard Rogers. Please invite anyone that you know that would like to attend class. This will be an informative 24 week study on the lives and missions of the prophets who served God and the Jews.

If you are going to attend please let Britton know as soon as you can so he can make sure there are enough workbooks and seating. If you would like a workbook, as always they are $11. If you pay by check, please make the check out to Netherwood Park Church of Christ.

Camp Courage @ Impact Houston

Camp Courage at Impact Houston

"When I am afraid, I put my trust in you. In God, whose word I praise – in God I trust and am not afraid. What can more mortals do to me?" - Psalm 56:3-4

In June, 22 youth and sponsors from Netherwood Park traveled again to Houston, TX to help the Impact Church of Christ with their summer long VBS program for inner-city families. The theme for the summer was Camp Courage and we taught 3rd-6th graders stories of Joseph from the Old Testament.

The trip was a great success! We worked with other youth groups and the Impact staff to kick off their summer program. The team did an amazing job of teaching and serving and showing God’s love. While the trip can be tiresome, the fulfillment of being present for those who need laughter and grace is worth every moment. Thank you for your support of the youth and this wonderful program!

"Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go." - Joshua 1:9
