Save The Date!

The HRCC Christmas Party will take place on Sunday, December 11 from 5:30pm until 8:00pm.  We've reserved the Tivoli Bowling Alley in downtown Downers Grove.  Dinner will be served, but we'd love for you to bring a Christmas dessert if you can.  Bowling will be free, and the arcade will be open.  Our friends from the Tivoli Hotel will be invited to join us.  See you there!

And Speaking of the Tivoli...

December 4th is the last day to bring your gifts for the men of the Tivoli Hotel.  Please bring men's winter hats, gloves and scarves for men to the collection bins that will be available in both foyers,  New items only, please; no hand-me-downs!

Featured Friday

On Friday, December 9 at 7:00pm, guest speaker Pastor Gary Grogan, will be here to talk about the baptism of the Holy Spirit.  Time and opportunity will be given for those who are actively seeking this baptism.  Begin praying and preparing now!  Questions?  Ask Pastor Dan!

Friendly Faces Needed

When Axess Church begins Sunday morning services in Glen Ellyn, it will mark the beginning of a new era in the story of HRCC!  The launch team includes several former members of the HRCC congregation and is led by our associate pastor, Garrett Black.. Things around HRCC are going to look pretty different without them, but God has some great things in store for us!  How will we fill their shoes?  Can you help?  A list of soon-to-be-open volunteer positions can be found on the information table including:.  Musicians, technicians, friendly faces ... we will need them all!

It's Time for C.O.R.E.!

Attention all kids!  Preschoolers and gradeschoolers are invited to weekly C.O.R.E. kids' club, which is now underway.  C.O.R.E. has fun, games, crafts, songs, and Bible lessons for kids each Wednesday from 6:30pm until 8:00pm.  We could use a few grown-ups to help, too!  Talk to Miss Catt about joining the team.

Amazon Smile

Have you started Christmas shopping yet?  Did you know you can support HRCC by using the url smile.amazon.com (rather than amazon.com)?  Once there, select Hobson Road Community Church as your charity, and a portion of the cost of every purchase you make will be donated to HRCC. 

HRCC Nursery is OPEN!

We are so excited that the nursery is open!  Thanks to Catt and her team, we have a fully ready and impressive baby nursery!  We have a pager system so you know if you need to go to your child for any reason. We have rocking chairs, pack & plays, and a really cool play-yard.  We have a full staff of volunteers ready to love on your baby during service, too!  If you are a parent of a newborn to 3-year-old and have questions, please contact Catt!.
