Start your **Saturday morning** right with our Men’s Breakfast on **Feb. 14 at 8 AM** in the Fellowship Hall. For just $5, enjoy all-you-can-eat food and great company. It’s the perfect morning of **food, fellowship, and faith**. See you there! --- ### **Monthly Mercy Ministry Offering This Sunday** Grace was never meant to stop with us; it’s meant to flow through us. This Communion Sunday, we invite you to participate in a special tradition of the early church by bringing an offering of mercy. These gifts allow our Mercy Ministry to care for the vulnerable in our midst in real, immediate ways. It’s not intended to take the place of our regular giving to the church (tithes) but rather to be an extra or special gift as you are able. For online gifts, choose the “Mercy Ministry” fund. For checks, put “mercy ministry” or “deacons” on the memo line. --- ![](https://churchusercontent.com/api/image-proxy?url=https%3A%2F%2Fauth.churchspace.co%2Fstorage%2Fv1%2Fobject%2Fpublic%2Forganization-assets%2F2a5f52cb-64b3-4307-b9b3-1c483117b5d3%2FBlack_History_Month_at_New_City_2026-02-10T14-37-43-588Z.png) ### **February is Black History Month** NCF Cultural Heritage Committee is highlighting the following events happening during Black History Month in Chattanooga.
