Northland Lutheran High School News:
We’re so close! Debt in the form of private notes was once a lifeline to continue sharing the Gospel at Northland. Through focused effort and Christ-compelled hearts, we have the opportunity to remove all past debt and start looking toward building our future. Our goal for November was to pay down another $115,000 to bring us to 96% of debt removed. As of November 24th we had $67,463 left to go on that goal. Please think about how you can help and continue to pray for God’s people to meet this goal on the way to full debt elimination by December 31st.
