It’s time for the Beach, BBQ’s, and spending some quality time with friends & family.
There’s a lot going on around here in the month of June. Check it out:
This Sunday we’ll be hosting a 25 minute “Volunteer Showcase”. This is a chance to see what we as a staff & volunteers do every Sunday.
If you’d like to attend, simply stay in the auditorium after the 12noon service or contact our Volunteer Coordinator

The Free Union Church has been serving the community of Ocean Beach, Fire Island for over 90 years. True North has entered a partnership with them to help run their Sunday Services.
Beginning Sunday, June 19th we’ll be holding services here in Bohemia AND on Fire Island all summer until Sunday, September 11th.
Service on Fire Island will begin at 10:45am (one service only). And while we will have TN staff & volunteers out there every week, the service itself will be a bit more traditional in nature.
We hope you’ll come out and visit. Ocean Beach can be accessed by the Fire Island Ferries running out of Bay Shore. We’ll be selling discounted tickets starting this Sunday.
On Monday, June 20th we’ll be hosting a Blood Drive from 2:30pm to 8:30pm. Help save a life, donate!

Did you know our new home as a church is a lot bigger than you might think? Our building has a large, currently unused portion known as “Phase II”. This section of the building will eventually house a larger auditorium, lobby and help expand UpTown & Wild Kingdom.
On Saturday & Sunday, June 25th & 26th we’ll be having a Yard Sale (rain or shine) in Phase II. Not only will this help us unload “stuff” that has accumulated over the last 5 years, but proceeds from the sale will help us get started financially for our Phase II project. If you have items that you’d like to donate to the Yard Sale, you can drop them off Sunday, June 12th- Thurs. June 16th & Sunday, June 19th. If you need to drop off on the 17th or 18th, please call the church by Thurs to arrange. 631-476-3811
Items NOT to donate: lightly used toothbrushes, old socks, unwanted pets, any type of junk, etc.
Worship is defined as our response, both personal and corporate, to God–for who he is and what he’s done. Every Sunday at church we gather for an hour to spend time with God, but it’s our hope that your desire to worship God will extend beyond Sunday mornings.
On Wednesday, June 22nd @ 7:30pm True North will be hosting a night of worship. This is a time for us to gather and sing to God. If you plan on attending night of worship we’d like to make a few requests:
1. If True North is not your home church, we request that you not attend the Night of Worship. That may sound a bit harsh, but our space will be limited and this is an event we want to celebrate with our church family – that is, the people who call our church “home”.
2. Night of Worship is a place for believers. Unlike most of our services, this is not a good night to invite your friends who are on the fence about their faith. This is a night to sing & lift your hands in worship to our creator.
Over 1 billion people do not have access to clean drinking water. The community groups of True North are partnering with Charity Water in a project called “Get Well”.
This summer we’ll be collecting and depositing water bottle. 100,000 bottles could dig a well in sub-Saharan Africa and give an entire village access to clean drinking water.
Bring your water bottles or deposits from recycling to True North and we’ll put it to our “Get Well” project. For more information on the water crisis visit www.charitywater.org
We will be holding a baptism at Cedar Beach in Mount Sinai on July 23rd @ 10:00 am. Signups will begin this Sunday.
Spectators are welcomed & encouraged!
