Events

For the remainder of September, the Mission Team is collecting new or gently used Halloween costumes (of all sizes) as well as bags of candy for our partner, Family Promise, as part of their Costumes and Candy event on Saturday, October 4th, so that children can receive costumes/treats before Halloween.

Please consider a donation in the yellow bin in The Gathering Place!

Excerpt from Streets to Home Indy & Rabbi Aaron Spiegel, GIMA Executive Director—

“The recent chaos at the Leonard Street encampment is exactly why now is the time for Streets To Home Indy,” commented Rev. David W. Greene, Sr., President of the Concerned Clergy of Indianapolis.” “Rather than transplanting our neighbors to another temporary encampment, Streets To Home Indy would provide them with the security of housing and services.”

The initiative, led by the Coalition for Intervention and Prevention (CHIP) is a cross-sector collaboration between faith, philanthropy, business, and city entities. “No single entity is able to address the complexity of homelessness, especially now given the federal mandate to pull back from data driven solutions,” remarked Chelsea Haring-Cozzi. “With this broad coalition and commitment, we can end chronic homelessness in Indianapolis.

Faith communities interested in joining the effort or learning more can contact Rabbi Aaron Spiegel at or 317-426-6725.

GIMA brings together faith leaders from diverse religious traditions to collaborate on civic projects that serve the common good and promote equity across Indianapolis.

Northminster's Flu Shot Clinic is back on Sunday, September 21st, and all are welcome! In partnership with Franciscan Health, we'll be offering four shots this year:

• Flu

• Pneumonia
• COVID-19

You can register by using the button below or in The Gathering Place on September 7th and 14th (both before and after worship). You can also help speed up the process by filling out and bringing your consent form (also available below) on the day of the clinic.

The COVID-19 vaccine is recommended for those 65 and older or those 12-64 years of age who have an underlying medical condition. Please note that Franciscan Health will not confirm the exact underlying medical condition. It is also recommended that individuals contact their insurance carrier to verify coverage before receiving the vaccine. Franciscan Health cannot guarantee that it will be paid for, as with any vaccine that is administered.  They bill the vaccines as preventative.

While Franciscan Health can attempt to bill most insurance companies, they cannot guarantee coverage/eligibility. It is the policyholder’s responsibility to check eligibility for services rendered.

One of the best ways we can help our church lower its carbon footprint is to cut back on (or completely eliminate) single-use items like plastic water bottles, disposable dishes, and utensils. The good news is our church has a nice collection of ceramic dishes and reusable utensils we can use for events, including our Wednesday night dinners and Italian night.

And here’s more good news - someone gets to wash those dirty dishes! If you’d like to be a member of the elite inaugural “Dishwashers For The Lord” crew, you can email or call Monica Brase by email or phone. Benefits of joining the crew include getting to eat the delicious Wednesday night meal (you can eat with the group or after everyone has left), wearing a cool apron and dishwashing gloves, and learning to operate the industrial dishwasher (a skill that looks great on a resume!). And, of course, you’ll be doing something great for our planet.

Everything you've always wanted to know about menopause but were afraid to ask! Join three experts, Dr. Stephanie Meade, Dr. Melanie MacLaren, and Dr. Deb Ronco, as we unpack this underdiscussed, misunderstood, and very real stage of life from the perspective of traditional, naturopathic, and complementary medicine. Spiritual Growth and Spiritual Wholeness and Wellness sponsor this event.

It is important for ALL people to have information about this topic, not just women of a certain age. Everyone is encouraged to attend, even men and children! Lunch will be provided by Cater Me Cafe, a local, woman-owned business in Nora. Reservations for lunch are required using the link below, and lunch is $15 for adults, $5 for kids, and gluten-free options are available. Childcare is provided. Please contact Krista Wright with questions.

One of the best ways we can help our church lower its carbon footprint is to cut back on (or completely eliminate) single-use items like plastic water bottles, disposable dishes, and utensils. The good news is our church has a nice collection of ceramic dishes and reusable utensils we can use for events, including our Wednesday night dinners and Italian night.

And here’s more good news - someone gets to wash those dirty dishes! If you’d like to be a member of the elite inaugural “Dishwashers For The Lord” crew, you can email or call Monica Brase by email or phone. Benefits of joining the crew include getting to eat the delicious Wednesday night meal (you can eat with the group or after everyone has left), wearing a cool apron and dishwashing gloves, and learning to operate the industrial dishwasher (a skill that looks great on a resume!). And, of course, you’ll be doing something great for our planet.

Upcoming 2025/2026 Classes

Celebrate the fall season at Northminster’s Fall Festival on Saturday, November 15th, from 11:30 am to 3:00 pm!

This celebration will feature lawn games and activities, pumpkin painting, and a variety of other fall activities for all ages. At 12:30 pm, gather with us for a free chili lunch with different kinds of chili for all to enjoy. We’ll also have a special moment of service, offering an opportunity to support our Indianapolis neighbors in need this holiday season. This event is open to all, so invite your friends, neighbors, and loved ones to join in the fun.

Whether you stop by for a little while or stay for the whole afternoon, you’ll find joy, community, and maybe even a chance to pie a pastor in the face!

Volunteers Needed!

We need cooking volunteers to make chili and cornbread. We're also in need of volunteers to help with the general flow of attendees and volunteers for clean-up duty.

SIGN UP HERE

Chili & Cornbread

Please ensure that food arrives no later than 11:45 am to be brought to Calvin Hall for warming. To accommodate all dietary restrictions, we are in need of the following chili options (The numbers indicate how many different crock pots we are looking for in order to make sure we have enough).

• Classic beef & bean (3)
• White chicken chili (2)
• Vegetarian (3)
• non spicy/kid friendly (1)
• Regular cornbread (12 servings x4)

Assistants and Clean-Up Duty

Volunteers are also needed to help with the general flow of attendees (directing guests to bathrooms inside, helping serve food and beverages, and helping monitor lawn games/activities/crafts), and volunteers are needed for clean-up duty. Event ends at 3:00, so volunteers would need to be available from then until 4:30 at the very latest

• December 10th - Visions of God - Latter Day Saints (Mormons)

Please note that we will not have class on Wednesday, November 26th (the evening before Thanksgiving).

Volunteer Greeters Needed!

Greeters needed! Are you looking to have a hot meal and to greet and talk to Wednesday night members and friends? Well, this is the perfect volunteer opportunity for you. Please consider being a greeter on Wednesday. Please sign up using the link below or contact Melissa Hopkins or Liz Higgins!

Sponsored by Spiritual Wholness and Wellness at Northminster, Comfort and Joy will include a sound bath with live music, a Longest Night self-guided liturgy, and a labyrinth walk. More information to come!

One of the best ways we can help our church lower its carbon footprint is to cut back on (or completely eliminate) single-use items like plastic water bottles, disposable dishes, and utensils. The good news is our church has a nice collection of ceramic dishes and reusable utensils we can use for events, including our Wednesday night dinners and Italian night.

And here’s more good news - someone gets to wash those dirty dishes! If you’d like to be a member of the elite inaugural “Dishwashers For The Lord” crew, you can email or call Monica Brase by email or phone. Benefits of joining the crew include getting to eat the delicious Wednesday night meal (you can eat with the group or after everyone has left), wearing a cool apron and dishwashing gloves, and learning to operate the industrial dishwasher (a skill that looks great on a resume!). And, of course, you’ll be doing something great for our planet.
