Local church has new name
Northwood Church of Redwood Falls is announcing the opening of a campus church in Springfield. Northwood Church-Springfield is now open in Springfield, with a grand opening set for August 4. The day will also celebrate the seventy-fifth anniversary of the church formerly known as Springfield Assembly of God and also New Life Assembly of God Church at 702 W. Central Street in Springfield.
Pastor Tony Vietti is the Lead Pastor for both locations, preaching at Northwood Church-Redwood Falls each week. Pastor Kent Furch is the newly appointed Springfield campus pastor, preaching each week at that location.
Worship and services at Redwood Falls are Sunday mornings at 10:00 a.m., Sunday evenings at 6:00 p.m. and Wednesday evenings at 7:00 p.m. Worship is Sundays at 10:00 a.m. at the Springfield location.
Since 1944, Northwood Church has had an impact on the community of Redwood Falls and the surrounding area. The original tenets of the church remain the same today: to reach, teach and equip people to become disciples of Jesus Christ and fulfill the Great Commission. Pastor Tony Vietti states, “As Pastor, I want Northwood Church to become a light for the people to see God’s love in the Redwood Falls and Springfield communities. The vision of Northwood Church is to be devoted to Christ, declaring the Truth and driven by Love.”
