Jesus told us, his disciples, to make disciples of all nations.  One of the most important values of The Connection is our mission to the world.  It begins in our own community, and spreads overseas to every nation.  The Connection members are involved in a variety of ministries from things as simple as cleaning the church facilities, to serving as a sound technician.

 Music

God-honoring worship is something we strive for.  Some church members get involved in our music ministry.  Some play their instruments.  Some are vocalists.  Some work in the sound booth.  These volunteers are an important part of the ministry of The Connection, using their talents and gifts to glorify God.

Ushers

The usher team at The Connection fills an important role.  They are involved in directing attendees to their seats, ensuring the safety of the building during services, guiding traffic, helping visitors, answering questions, providing direction, unlocking doors, locking doors, and generally ensuring that the service can proceed problem-free.  The ushers are servant-hearted people whose ministry is integral to church life.

Media & Technology

Using media to spread the gospel is a privilege of The Connection.  In an age of widespread technology, we have a stewardship to use these tools as best as possible for kingdom purposes.  Sermons are uploaded to our website in audio formats.  We also maintain an active Facebook and Twitter account for additional church communication.

Prayer Team

Prayer cannot be overestimated.  Prayer moves the hand of God.  The Connection is a body of believers dependent upon prayer, and committed to God’s sovereignty.   Throughout the week, volunteers to our Prayer Team, pray for their pastor, a list of church members and any special requests.

Children’s Ministry

In order to give our children the best Bible teaching possible, The Connection holds a children’s church service in conjunction with the main service.  This special time gives kids more opportunity for interaction and learning in a context and manner that may be better suited to their age and learning styles.  Our friendly children’s church volunteers have an endless stream of creativity – ranging from puppet shows, to games, to object lessons.

Camp Counselors

Each summer, The Connection youth go to camp.  The 3 to 4 day event involves games, a lot of preaching, great food, good worship, and the intentional influence of camp counselors.  The camp counselors are selected, screened, and trained for this important camp ministry.  They find that their ministry is personally rewarding, and both campers and counselors grow in the process.
