OUR STORY

WHO WE ARE MATTERS

NorthStar is a non-denominational, upbeat, Bible-believing, contemporary Church based in Rawlings, Maryland. Services start at 10:30 am on Sundays and operate several, ​various Home Groups throughout the week.

WHAT MAKES US TICK

It is our vision to partner with God to build His church.
We believe that since God’s vision for the world is a church that is going to push back the gates of Hell, then to align with Him is not only a great idea, but one that He would approve of, and allow Him to partner with us.

WHAT WE BELIEVE
​
Our mission is to lead people into a growing relationship with Jesus Christ.
 We accomplish our mission by creating irresistible environments where people are encouraged and equipped to pursue:
 
1. Intimacy with God
2. Community with insiders
3. Influence with outsiders

Influence

Community

CORE VALUES

HOW WE RUN THINGS

WE BELIEVE IN RELEVANCE

We exist to be relevant,
as we lead our generation to God, and connect people to a growing community of Christ-followers who go and serve others. Our worship services - whether it’s adult worship, or one of our ministries ranging from newborns to college students - are designed to provide a creative and compelling
message of God’s truths.

WE BELIEVE YOU MATTER

We believe that people matter to God. And that's not just a slogan, we put actions to words. 
From the moment that you pull into the parking lot, our desire is for you to feel welcome and valued. This translates across our entire campus and demonstrated by our weekly service teams. So whether you're grabbing a cup of coffee at HeBrews, or joining us in worship, we want to show you that you're loved, and that YOU matter.

WE BELIEVE IN THE BIBLE

We present the message of Jesus Christ,
 in a way that speaks to today’s culture and will give us a way to live out those truths every day of the week. No matter when you attend, we believe you’ll find NorthStar to be a refreshing place where you will be reminded that you matter to God.
