Connecting People to People

communitymealpicCommunity Meal

Over the years, Nativity has hosted a monthly community meal, a wonderful opportunity to sit together and to enjoy delicious food. Since the pandemic began in early 2020, this monthly event has been on hiatus, although occasional meals are being hosted. Volunteers take turns to ensure the meal goes off without a hitch. Typically, one person will oversee one meal per year. The leader gets to choose the meal's theme, and the rest of the congregation eagerly steps forward to add what they can to the meal's success. Visiting Nativity and sharing a meal with us, is a GREAT way to get a sense of the Nativity Lutheran spirit. Please come! To learn more about future community meals, contact the church office.

youthpicYouth and Education

We are a small congregation, but we make every effort to see to it that all people of all ages are engaged in the minsitry of God here in North Conway.

Over the years, Nativity's youth have traveled to National Youth Gatherings (including in New Orleans, Detroit, and Houston and are preparing to participate in the next national event, hopefully in 2024. Our youth participate in every aspect of the worship service as readers, musicians, and ushers. We have younger people who are involved in our Explorers of Faith program, Confirmation instruction and youth group. Children are always welcome at Nativity and we embrace the vibrancy, activity and, yes, noise they bring to our community.

For all ages, the primary focus here is the worship service each week. Through excellent music, creative litanies, and engaging sermons, people of all ages grow more deeply in faith. Nativity is truly an intergenerational faith community with a heart for helping everyone see where God is working in their lives. For more information, contact the church office.
