MINISTRIES

Short-term Missions

Northpoint Bible College arranges and conducts various short-term missions trips both nationally and internationally. These trips are very beneficial to the prospective minister of the gospel. During these trips, personal testimonies of God’s faithfulness are actualized, and the experience of seeing the manifestation of God’s plan inspires, motivates, and edifies the student participant.

Street Team

The Great Commission in Matthew 28:18-20 states, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Therefore go and make disciples of all nations,baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.” 

The Street Team starts in the Prayer Chapel and then hits the streets of Haverhill to make disciples. What we learn in the classroom throughout the week, we practice on the streets. Learn how to defend your faith, articulate the Gospel, be used in spiritual gifts, and connect with the city.

We meet people from all walks of life and we see people saved, healed, and delivered. 

All students are welcome in this week by week ministry.

Chapel

One of the highlights of Northpoint Bible College are the Chapel Services. These chapel experiences are known to students and graduates as the classroom of the Holy Spirit. On Monday through Thursday, students, staff, faculty, and administration join together to seek God, worship, and experience His presence. It’s here that students are exposed to a variety worship and ministry experiences from local pastors and world missionaries. Miracles take place in chapel as students exchange their brokeness for Christ’s wholeness. In Chapel, we come as we are, but we leave changed and empowered as the Holy Spirit comes upon us. All things are possible with God!

Christian Service

The Christian Service program is an extensive outreach program available to all students. The student’s participation provides exposure to a wide range of churches. A broad range of ministerial functions help the student gain experience and understanding in preparation for Christian service.
