Kids Konnection is a vital children’s ministry at HCC! “Lesson Plans” are provided, and you can choose what type of activities you would like to do. It can be more involved like doing a craft, to reading Bible Stories, to just popping in a Bible video– whatever your comfort level is! This year we are also having our HCC Jr./Sr. High Students signing up to assist in taking the youngest kids to the nursery, taking little ones to the restroom, etc. Please consider helping in this important ministry!
