Dei Gratia
A Ministry to Cancer Patients
​
Dei Gratia means "by the grace of God." This gospel-focused ministry primarily exists to strengthen and encourage people of all ages who are battling cancer. A cancer diagnosis not only means a battle for physical health, but it also brings with it a spiritual and emotional battle.
With that understanding, members of NorthStone work together to produce and deliver Gospel gift bags to cancer patients at hospitals and medical facilities all around Pensacola. The bags themselves are hand crafted, very stylish, and include numerous spiritual and practical gifts. By the grace of God, He has used the Dei Gratia volunteers to encourage many people as they face the deepest trials of their lives.

Ways We Support Our Current Missionaries: In addition to monthly financial support, our Sunday School classes are involved in an Adopt a Missionary program where each class prays for, and communicates with, assigned missionaries. Every Wednesday evening, a missionary letter is read to the congregation for updates and prayer requests. Members of the NSBC Missions Committee meet monthly for prayer and to evaluate the needs of our missionaries.
Each October NSBC hosts our Furthering the Gospel Conference. The goal of the conference is to aid missionaries in their goal of Furthering the Gospel in the field to which God has called them.
Other Ministries include our annual evangelistic endeavors:
Fall Festival, 3-on-3 Basketball Tournament, and much more!
