MISSIONS

Thank You From Our Shine Team!

KIDS MINISTRY

Birds & Bees Seminar September 6 (6-8:30pm)
Birds & Bees: We Teach You, You Teach Them
Hey Parents and Grandparents, this event is for you, especially if your kids are young!
If WE don’t talk to our kids about sex, then who (or what?) will teach them? Did you know kids are as likely to see porn by accident as they are to actively search for it? This is shocking, no doubt, but it’s not all doom-and-gloom! Let’s speak up + speak into your kids’ lives. Now is the time. Join us for Birds & Bees – September 6, at 6pm. For more info and to register, visit hoffmantownchurch.org/events.

WORKERS NEEDED!
Did you know it takes an average of 28 workers every Sunday to run Kids Ministry? Right now, we only have about 21 each week. Our kids need you to step in the gap and serve. Stats show that kids who have one intentional adult outside of mom and dad invest in them spiritually are more likely to be long lasting followers of Christ. Be a part of the team that is working to make an eternal impact in the lives of kids. We provide the training, you get to have the fun!

Interested in serving or looking for more info? Contact CaitlinC@hoffmantown.org.

Join us for AWANA Wednesdays (6:30-8:15pm)
Kids 2 years old – 6th grade are encouraged to take part every Wednesday night as we study the Bible, memorize verses, play fun games and build great friendships. Sign up at hoffmantownchurch.org/awana. Volunteers are always needed to serve in AWANA. Interested? Contact StacieM@hoffmantown.org.

Join us for family kickball after church! Let’s have fun and enjoy some friendly competition – adults, plan to join in on the fun too! Meet at the Mission Field at 12:30pm.

5th & 6th Grade Friday Night Fun, August 23 (6-8pm)
Join us for a night of games, snacks, and excitement at the 5th & 6th Grade Friday Night Fun Event! Expect games, friendly competition, prizes and more. Don’t miss out on the fun – see you there! Register today at hoffmantownchurch.org/events.

 

STUDENT MINISTRY

Wow! What an incredible comeback!
We had a two great Sundays in a row looking at “The Preexistent Christ” and “The Old Testament Christ” in our new Disciple Making Curriculum! At HSM we make prayer a priority and pray for the lost, the nations, our city and our church each week. Is God calling you to join us as we pray together? Is God calling you to invest in the spiritual lives of students? Reach out to Pastor Dane for more details on how to serve!

7-12th graders see you Wednesday nights from 6:30-8pm, in building E!
And don’t forget Student Ministry Sunday School every Sunday 11am-12:15pm.
