MISSIONS
HCC has been led to give 19% of its budget towards local, national and world-wide ministries doing work that aligns with the mission of the church. The Missions Ministry Board coordinates this distribution to deserving evangelistic and caring and compassion ministries, in addition to other outreach endeavors with a focus on children, human trafficking, and spreading the good news of Jesus Christ. We are guided by our Purpose Statement: Share the word of Jesus Christ with others, grow disciples, and care for the poor and hurting in our world and neighborhoods.
COMPASSIONATE CRAFTERS
Compassionate Crafters meets the first and third Thursdays of the month from 1-3 p.m. to create handcrafted items for charitable purposes. We have made sensory blankets for dementia patients, baby hats, knitted breast prosthetics, quilts, prayer squares and other items that can be used in outreach. We have sewers, knitters, crocheters and more. If you have a talent you’d like to share or you’d like to join the group, you are welcome. If you see a need for these services in our community, we’d love to hear from you. For more information, contact Jane Ellington by email.
