» FAMILY LIFE MINISTRY

HNC offers a total life approach to bring families together for Christ-centered, fun-filled activities and sports for all ages.

Sports teams for all ages focus on more than winning a game. They focus on a winning attitude. Children and adults alike learn the value of endurance, teamwork, discipline and sportsmanship-all while having a great time and making new friends.

Regardless of your experience or abilities, the Family Life Ministry at HNC provides many great ways to exercise the body as well as build character and relationships.

Free Play/Basketball Fellowship

Members and their invited guests may participate in free play or "pick up" games whenever other scheduled events do not preclude use of the facility.

This league is open to both members and non-members, and plays on Saturday mornings from the middle of March through the middle of June.

Men's and Ladies Fall Leagues

Leagues for men and women play from mid-August through the end of October, with registration taking place in June. Due to space limitations, availability for non-members is limited. Men may choose from the "A" league (highest skill level), the "B+" league, or the "B" league. Those 35 or older may also choose to play in the "slow break" league.

We all need people we can talk to and be heard, to count on in times of trouble, and just share our lives with. We also want to inspire and encourage you to get involved in minis-try opportunities within the church. Whether you are in need of healing from broken relationships, encouragement and support in being a single parent, or just a way to meet friends, we want to provide a safe environment for you to get those needs met.

2 Chronicles 5:12-14
...and the Levites who were the singers, all those of Asaph and Heman and Jeduthun, with their sons and their brethren, stood at the east end of the altar, clothed in white linen, having cymbals, stringed instruments and harps, and with them one hundred and twenty priests sounding with trumpets-- indeed it came to pass, when the trumpeters and singers were as one, to make one sound to be heard in praising and thanking the LORD, and when they lifted up their voice with the trumpets and cymbals and instruments of music, and praised the LORD, saying: "For He is good, For His mercy endures forever," that the house, the house of the LORD, was filled with a cloud, so that the priests could not continue ministering because of the cloud; for the glory of the LORD filled the house of God.
