We will start the study "Life Lessons from John" by Max Lucado on September 23rd. Cost: $20. Please register at the link below!

About the Study:
Witness the moments, ministry, and miracles of Jesus.  In Max Lucado's 12-lesson Bible study, Life Lessons from John, we are privileged to see the hands-on Jesus through the eyes of John, who saw his acts firsthand. The water that turned to wine; the mud placed on a blind man's eyes, the aroma of Mary's perfume, and even Jesus' voice. John's gift to us is a record of tender moments and heaven-powered miracles.

When you follow Christ, you join the global Church—but you’re also invited to belong to a local church family. At North Shore Alliance Church, we believe the Holy Spirit is at work in and through the local church to bring hope and share the good news of Jesus across the North Shore.

Membership is a public commitment to love Jesus, live our shared values, and pursue God’s purposes together. It deepens community, invites accountability, and gives you a voice in shaping the future of North Shore Alliance Church—including participating in elder elections.

If you’d like to explore membership at North Shore Alliance Church, you can take our online Membership Course at the link below. The course is self-paced, allowing you to progress on your own schedule.

To join our next Membership intake, please ensure you complete the course and submit your application by Sunday, September 13.

God designed us for community and never intended for us to follow Him alone. Small groups are one of the best ways to experience genuine Christian community and grow in our faith as we study God’s Word, encourage and pray for one another, serve and equip others, and share life together.

GroupLink is an opportunity to meet other people and explore groups that fit your stage of life and availability, with the goal of joining or forming a small group. Pastor Brendan and small group leaders will be on hand to navigate you through the process of meeting others and finding a group where you can connect and grow.

Our next GroupLink will be on Sunday, September 20th. Join us between the services in the Upper Room from 10:20-10:50am. We'd love to help you take the next step toward finding community!

NSA Youth Cereal Sundays is a chance for youth to ask big questions over big ol' sugary bowls of breakfast!

"In a world of never-ending noise, distractions, AI, anxiety meds, misinformation etc, etc... the emerging generation is being pulled in every direction. They're told who to be, what to believe, and what to chase. 

But beneath all the noise... there’s a deep longing for something real -- for connection, purpose, and truth."

Using the NEW Alpha Youth series, Cereal Sundays will provide a fun, relaxed, low-pressure environment where teens can ask questions & explore their faith.

We'll equip students with the tools and support needed to live out their own faith, AND lead their friends to Jesus! (Cereal Sundays are an AWESOME opportunity to invite non-believing friends to church! Who doesn't love free food!?)

Cereal Sundays will include: breakfast, a short video, time to discuss, and plenty of opportunity to build friendships! 

Come right in as soon as you get to church, or wait until you're dismissed after worship. We'll be ready either way!

Kickoff: Sept. 27th, 2026
Following Dates: The third Sunday of every month (10 sessions)
Time: 9am OR 11am (each service is just over an hour!)
Location: NSAC, Fireside Room (Downstairs)

NOTE: Bring your own bowl & we'll bring the cereal!

Cereal Sundays is 100% free of charge to attendees.

Questions? Email: megan@nsac.bc.ca
