About Us
Northwest Community Church grew out of a Mennonite Brethren mission outreach which formed a German speaking country church in 1938. This church transitioned to English in 1951 under a pastor with a passion for evangelism, because of one family that did not speak German. Another Mennonite Brethren mission outreach formed another church in a nearby district in 1957 and the two merged in 1958. This merged congregation moved into the town of Meadow Lake in 1961 and became Meadow Lake Mennonite Brethren Church. There were two subsequent church builds and a name change in 1994 as the name was felt to discourage seekers.
We have an active membership of 46 people with a total attendance of 70 people. We have a wide range of ages: middle aged people, families with young children and toddlers; and, of course, there are some older, wiser people. Our congregation is comprised of retired people, farmers, health care and teaching professionals, labourers, and other fields.
We have a Sunday morning service at 10:30am, as well as Sunday School for all adults 9:30am (children's S.S. is currently on hold). We have Bible study every Tuesday night, and a Kid's Club - Club DJ - that we run on Friday evenings. We also hold a fifty plus dinner outreach once a month. We are also one of the ownership churches in Bethel Gospel Camp, a summer camp located 40 miles north in Meadow Lake Provincial Park.
Northwest Community Church is a family church with a desire to be and make disciples.
