2025-2026 NORTHWEST DISTRICT COUNCIL
In the spirit of love and care for one another, the Northwest District Council prays for the needs and concerns of member churches across the Northwest District. Each council member has been assigned a group of churches within relatively close proximity to them. If you have particular prayer requests or concerns, please reach out to your assigned council liaison. We would love to be of service to you!
