NORTHWEST FAMILY CHURCH
SILVER VALLEY CAMPUS
A BRIEF HISTORY OF NORTHWEST FAMILY
NWFC began in 1910 in a small community known as Pleasant View on the south side of the river. Many things have changed over the 100+ years of ministry. What began as a baptist church embraced the Holy Spirit in the 1950’s in 2018 became Northwest Family Church and affiliated with the Assemblies of God. Pastor Jeff has been leading our church since 2017.
During the pandemic in 2020 the Lord led us to rent a second campus in Post Falls and have services both at the West and new North Campuses each Sunday.
In 2023 the North Campus was sold and after much prayer we combined our services to one and moved our Sunday gathering to the Boys and Girls club in Post Falls. Another important addition in 2023 was The Assembly in Sandpoint approached us about taking over the ownership and operations of the church campus in Kellogg, ID that they took on as a PAC a year prior. We felt clearly that this was the Lord’s will and created Northwest Family Church, Silver Valley Campus. After a year of cleaning up the church and completely restoring the interior of the parsonage we are ready to add a campus champion to lead that effort.
We are seeking a team player who is passionate about seeing people find faith and Jesus and grow to their God given potential. This full-time pastoral team member’s responsibilities would include being the campus pastor at our Silver Valley Campus and leading the youth ministry at our Post Falls campus. Compensation will come from a salary and living in a 4 Bedroom, 2 Bathroom parsonage located just down the street from the church campus in Kellogg.
