All Church Budget Meeting

Today we will have our annual budget meeting right after church As an attending member of NHCF, you are invited to join us in reviewing our church budget for 2023, and to ask any questions.

Why A Budget?


NHCF has always had a deep conviction that "it all belongs to the LORD."

Donations and gifts given to this body need to be handled with reverent care, and since we people tend to be careless, a budget adds disciplined responsibility to our church's financial life. Likewise, God has blessed us with an income of $229,800.97 last year. That's amazing, and it requires a thankful gratitude along with a sincere desire to bless God.

Keep praying for God’s mercy and favor to our nation in the New Year, and for the conversion of our national leadership to Christ.
New Years


After the usual hurrahs, and parties, fireworks, noise makers, along with the ball dropping in Times Square, NY, we're back to the old grind. That's been the drill in years past.

There's a certain comfort in the old and expected. Entering the new year through known pathways gives us assurance, especially when the past year has been a rollercoaster ride. But, is this necessarily where we should be? Should our "newness" just be a repeat of what's happened before? Are we Bill Murray in the movie "Groundhog Day," where he had to relive that one day, over and over again, until he got it right?

God says, "Behold, I will do something new. Now it will spring forth; will you not be aware of it...I, even I, Am the One who wipes out your transgressions for My own sake; and I will not remember your sins..." (Isa.43.19,25). Oh, but we remember our sins, and as the new year rolls around, we're soon living the regret and shame once again.

Paul writes, "Wretched man that I am! Who will set me free from the body of this death" (Rom.7.24)? Who will deliver me from the past year filled with pain and grief? Who will lift me up out of my doldrums and sinful ways? Well, Paul gives the answer: "Thanks be to God through Jesus Christ our Lord (7.25a)!

Notice that Paul writes, "Lord." If this is going to be a truly new year for us, we need to get straight at the start who is the Lord of our lives.

Jesus said, "Many will say to Me on that day, 'Lord, Lord'...I will declare to them, I never knew you, depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness" (Matt.7.22-23). After these words, Jesus challenges us to hear His words and act upon them.

If Jesus is the Lord of our lives, then we believe what He says, and believing, we live that way.

Happy New Year!
Pastor Tom
