NRCC's Blessing of "The Land"
NRCC has been outgrowing our facilities for many years. Since 2010 we searched for land—walking property after property, praying, waiting, and trusting God to open the right door. Just when it seemed impossible, God provided. At the very start of the pandemic—when we weren’t even sure we could pay the bills—God placed the perfect property in front of us. In 2020, we were able to purchase 12.75 acres for $400,000, and our Leadership and Congregation voted unanimously to move forward! This loan was completely paid off in 2023! Now we’re dreaming big:
• A larger Sanctuary
• Classroom space
• A Daycare
• A Recreation Center for Sneads Ferry
Until construction begins, the front building is leased to a bleacher company. Thank you for your faithfulness and generosity. Because of you—and in God’s perfect timing—the future is incredibly bright for NRCC!

Introduction to Guatemala Missions
Our Annual Mission Trips to Guatemala
Each year, NRCC partners with Give & Teach to serve families in Guatemala. These trips are a meaningful way we live out the Great Commission and are something our church family looks forward to each year.
While there, we work alongside other U.S. teams in small mountain villages—building homes, installing vented stoves, and leading Vacation Bible School for local children. The joy and faith shared during these moments leave a lasting impact on both the communities and our volunteers.
Our team stays at the safe and comfortable Mission House, about an hour outside Guatemala City, complete with hot water, Wi‑Fi, and plenty of space to rest. You can learn more at: http://www.giveandteach.org/future-plans.html.
Trip costs cover airfare, in‑country transportation, and meals (excluding airport meals). Every year, God provides for those who feel called to go.
Whether you feel led to participate or to support others through prayer and generosity, we invite you to be part of this life‑changing ministry. Maybe this is your year to join the journey!
