<p>Does the game of “Life” ever just “Boggle” your mind?  Do you feel like everything has a “Monopoly” on your time?  Can you picture yourself having a major “Outburst” screaming “Yahtzee” and making different “Guesstures”? Do you ever feel like an “Old Maid” and just want to “Go Fish” or get a “Clue”?</p>
<p>During the month of <strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">January</span></strong>, True North will be doing a sermon series on “Board Games”. We are asking for families to host a GAME NIGHT in their home and join in the “Operation”.  It is as easy as “Candyland”. You pick the date and time you are willing to host and we’ll take care of getting families in their “Scattergories”…</p>
<p><em>Please contact </em><a href="mailto:painterfamily5@gmail.com"><em>Stacie Painter</em></a><em> at  if you are interested in joining the game!</em></p>
<p>Building community within our church is no “Trivial Pursuit”!</p>
<h5>**** UPDATE: You can go <a href="http://www.truenorthchurch.net/game-night-host-form" target="_blank">fill out an online form</a> to sign up to host. Also, please note that this is an adult only event. There is no childcare provided &amp; children are discouraged from attending.</h5>

<p><em>The following is an awesome outreach opportunity being put together by our college &amp; young adults. If you have additional questions please contact <a href="mailto:danfruhauf@gmail.com">Dan Fruhauf</a> or Matt Senior.</em></p>
<h3>College and Young Adult Outreach to the Homeless of NYC Subways</h3>
<p>This is an initiative to lend a warm hand to people in bitter need.  During the cold months of the year the Subways of New York grow in number of homeless people seeking shelter and especially warmth. It is a blessing and an opportunity to serve these people who need love and compassion.</p>
<p>On <strong>November 15th and 22nd</strong>, we are looking to invite you to donate sleeping bags that will be delivered and handed out to the homeless in the NYC subways. Since True North is the kind of church that gives overwhelmingly, we will be asking no more than two per family, and no more than one donation per person. There will also be a sign up sheet at the info table for any college or young adults looking to participate in the delivering of the sleeping bags. The distribution date will be on <strong>Friday, December 4th</strong>. We will be meeting in Penn Station at 9pm at the main terminal.</p>
