Want to make a difference in the lives of others during the COVID 19 crisis? Here’s how.
YMCA Food Drive
We are collecting food items that will help feed needy kids that normally are fed at school. Consider donating peanut butter, jelly and bread to be distributed to our community partners on Fridays. Please drop items off in containers at the Mount Paran North Main Entrance. No glass items, please. Contact [email protected]
Support MUST Ministries
MUST Ministries serves our community by providing food and supplies to those in need. Sign up as a MUST volunteer at https://www.mustministries.
Support Marietta City Schools
Marietta City Schools is prepared to continue instruction for students through their digital learning platform with their new program called “Connect-a-Kid.” This program will allow the city to outfit school buses with mobile wi-fi “hot-spots” that will be placed in safe locations throughout the community. Additionally, you can temporarily support a Marietta family who may need access to a computing device and internet access in their home.
For just $35, you can provide one month of internet access for a Marietta student. If you would like to “Connect-a-Kid” and support such technology needs, please donate online at https://marietta.revtrak.
Grocery Delivery Team
We are making daily deliveries to those who can not get out to pick up supplies. Join our team to become a shopper or to help make deliveries. Contact [email protected] to sign up!
Stay Connected
Don’t forget to call or check-in with neighbors and loved ones during this challenging time.
We exist not only to serve the needs of our congregation but to have a positive impact on our local community—showing our neighbors the love of Jesus. The following service groups meet most of the year.

Table on Delk
The Table on Delk provides a safe place for those who are currently, or at risk of, being sexually exploited to have a meal and get connected to resources that they might not know about. Volunteers are needed to prepare food and to show our guests the Father’s love. By showing them His love through genuine interactions, telling them that their lives do matter and that He has a plan and purpose for them, some of those we serve will take steps toward healing and restoration.

From our Freedom Celebration in July and our Back to School event in August to the Thanksgiving Outreach and Christmas Wish List, you have the opportunity to serve guests and those in need. These events are “all hands on deck” events; from providing parking help, to helping a child try on shoes, to providing a Thanksgiving meal to a family in need, to sponsoring a child for Christmas.

Our Partners
MUST Ministries
Throughout the year, we partner with this special ministry to meet the needs of our local community through events such as coat and can drives, school lunch and backpack preparation. But there is much more to do at their ministry center in Kennesaw. See how you can help out.
The YMCA is known as a great place to get healthy and fit, but, one thing you may not know is their commitment to help the surrounding community. North, along with other non-profits, local businesses, and government grants, partner with the YMCA on their projects to help bring food and meals to those in need, provide produce to local “food deserts”, and provide preschool education to poor communities.
