LOCAL OUTREACH

Our Vision for Local Outreach: To take the message of Jesus Christ to where the people live, study, and work in the local communities that HCC serves.

Local Outreach at HCC spans many ministries sponsored by HCC and in joint operations with other ministry partners. Community Service and Evangelism are the two main components of HCC's Local Outreach ministry.

COMMUNITY SERVICE

The purpose of Community Service is to serve our local communities spiritually, physically, and emotionally. In the quest to be both spiritually and socially responsible, the HCC community dedicates itself to volunteering with and assisting other ministries, and to live and show the love of Christ to every single person we encounter.

LOCAL EVANGELISM

Evangelism is the second component of Local Outreach at HCC. We believe that evangelism is a lifestyle, and HCC is committed to encouraging and teaching believers in Christ how to develop friendships while praying for opportunities to share with others the love of Christ.

  • Evangelism Explosion (EE)
    • EE is a tool of personal evangelism that can be seen as “on-the-job” training. Through EE classroom lectures and real life visitations, EE instructs students in biblically-based methods on how to present the Gospel to relatives, friends, neighbors, and co-workers. Through a “10 step” plan, classroom lectures and team learning experiences, students build a theologically-sound basis on the framework of the Gospel so that they present God’s plan clearly and coherently.
