Habitat for Humanity News
Northfield UMC has agreed to join in a 2026 community project with Habitat for Humanity Rice County for the building of a duplex townhome on the corner of College and Sumner in Northfield.
Dave Wolf expects that we will need construction volunteers by mid July to help with the kind of jobs Habitat relies on volunteers to provide.
We intend to provide more information early in July about jobs and times (always on a Saturday) for NUMC construction volunteers.

Hey Church Family!
Summer is in full swing, and we can’t think of a better way to spend a Sunday afternoon than cooling off and catching up together. Pack your sunscreen, grab your towels, and join us for a fun afternoon at the community pool!
The Details:
- When: Sunday, July 19th
- Time: 3:00 PM – 5:00 PM
- Where: Northfield Memorial Pool
💵 It's On Us!
We want to bless our families and make this a stress-free day of fun. The church is covering the full cost of swimming and pool admission for our church famillies. Just show up ready to dive in!
Note: Whether you're a champion swimmer, a shallow-end wader, or just want to relax poolside in a lounge chair and chat, there’s a spot for you.
No need to buy tickets in advance—just look for our church sign/table near the front entrance when you arrive so we can get everyone checked in.
We can't wait to see you there! 🌊
