If you would like to submit a nativity set for display, please bring your set on Thursday, December 12, 1-4pm, or Friday, December 13, 10am-1pm, to the Fellowship Mall.

KIDS MINISTRY
George Barna once said, “In the race to a child’s heart, the first one there wins.
Kids Ministry is grateful to see growth in the number of families coming to Hoffmantown and are thankful the volunteers who weekly prepare and invest in the lives of these kids, knowing we have the opportunity to make an eternal impact.
As we head into the New Year, Kids Ministry is looking for eight people to step in to serve in the nursery one time a month during the 9:30am hour. Training is provided and the best bonus is the cute kids you get to work with!
Interested in serving? Looking for more information? Contact Caitlin at CaitlinC@hoffmantown.org.
