Next Gen Ministries
**Pardon the Dust**
Thank you all for your incredible patience and understanding throughout our flooring renovation journey! It's been quite the adventure, hasn't it? But guess what? The wait is finally over! We're thrilled to announce that our Sunday kids' ministry will be making its grand return on May 19th! 🎉
While we'll be temporarily relocating to the Multi-Purpose Room until the end of June, rest assured, the fun and excitement will be just as amazing as ever! Get ready to experience the joy of community and growth together once again.
Until May 19, we encourage families to continue nurturing their children's faith whether that means sitting together during the worship time, joining our live stream at https://www.youtube.com/@hillcrestsj at home, or setting aside time for family devotions, prayer, and engaging discussions.
We understand the importance of our kids ministry and nursery to our community, and we are committed to ensuring a safe and enriching environment for all when we resume our regular activities.
Thank you for your patience and grace, we really really look forward to seeing you then!
Children's Experience
Here at Hillcrest Church we prioritize accommodating parents / guardians and providing a safe environment for children!
​We believe that parents and guardians should have a choice at church, so we have two options available:​
1. We welcome all children from infant up to age 4, downstairs in our newly renovated and secured-access children's wing, during our Sunday Worship time! Registration & check-in is from 10:25-10:40am.
Children remain with their parents / caretakers until after the music and kids video portion of the worship service. They are then dismissed downstairs for a time of activities, small group, prayer, and games!
​2. For children 5 and over or for those who may have separation anxiety, or if you simply prefer to keep your infant / child with you during our service (which is TOTALLY ok!), we have an infant play-yard and "family tables" available in our sanctuary that are stocked with arts and crafts!
(The Children's Sunday Experience runs from September - the end of June)
Youth Ministry
Hillcrest student ministry exists to reach students through relationships to discover Jesus in a safe and supportive environment in Saint John. Through intentional relationship, conversations, and fun, we are investing in the next generation and journeying with them as they discover their identity, unique purpose and the potential of living a Spirit filled life both at home and school.
Our gatherings are structured to provide space for creativity, food, scriptural teaching, and allow our students to ask questions and discuss their life confidently, as they journey through middle and high school.
​
Grades 6-12 are welcome!
Friday 6:30-8:30pm at Hillcrest Facility
