NEXT is a community of young adults (ages 18-30, married and single) who choose to live according to God’s word. They embrace their identity in Christ as they grow in faith, meet new friends, and serve others. The needs of young adults are focused on with interactive discussion and time in God’s word.

NEXT studies are using RightNow Media Bible Study during the 9:30 a.m. Sunday School hour. All adults (18-30) are invited to join them in Room 106 in the Courtyard. 

Text or call Melissa Joyner (813.777.6342) or Trisha Shirey (813.244.3840) for information about the group. In addition to regular weekly meetings, fun social events and service projects are offered. Join the Facebook group NBCC NEXT group to connect with them.

We are going to the movies at West Shore Mall. We’ll leave NBCC at 10 a.m. on Saturday, July 16, to see “Where the Crawdads Sing”. From the best-selling novel comes a captivating mystery. “Where the Crawdads Sing” tells the story of Kya, an abandoned girl who raised herself to adulthood in the dangerous marshlands of North Carolina. For years, rumors of the “Marsh Girl” haunted Barkley Cove, isolating the sharp and resilient Kya from her community. Drawn to two young men from town, Kya opens herself to a new and startling world; but when one of them is found dead, she is immediately cast by the community as the main suspect. As the case unfolds, the verdict as to what actually happened becomes increasingly unclear, threatening to reveal the many secrets that lay within the marsh. 

If you have a present for Baby Everett, this will give you time to drop it off at NBCC and get the bus for the movie. We will eat lunch after the movie at Grimaldi’s pizza. 

Please contact Tracey Porath or Sara Sharp for more information about the PrimeTimers.
