A New Beginning!‍

A Year of Firsts:

Responding & Reaching Out:

• ‍Pastor Hurmon and Dr. Rhonda Hamilton led NBCC’s first Married Life Retreat, “How to Build a Better Marriage” with 120 couples in attendance.
• Pastor Hurmon’s “Champions” series challenged our community to break down racial boundaries in response to police violence and country-wide shootings.

On the Move:

  • Partnering with Stephen Ministry to establish a compassionate, volunteer-led care and support network for our community

Responding to Global Change:‍

Post-Pandemic “New Normal”:‍

• As we transitioned to post-pandemic life, NBCC united all campuses in person to celebrate, laugh, and connect across generations.

Expanding our Reach:

Leading the Way:

• ‍NBCC hosted the first Church in the Park with over 500 in attendance at Mitchell Park in Palo Alto
• NBCC joined the Bay Area “Explore God” campaign, sparking hundreds of faith-centered conversations and leading to the baptism of 24 new believers.

Reflecting, Reaching, Rejoicing:

• ‍As NBCC celebrates ten years and looks ahead, we’ve launched live streaming, introduced a new season of men’s, women’s, and young adult ministries, and unveiled a fresh new look, all while impacting families across the Bay Area.

And we’re just getting started!

We’re excited to see where God’s spirit moves us next, knowing that this is just the beginning of our story!
