This series will help parents broaden their scope of knowledge on key development stages on the identities of their child, how God designed them, and real life tools and applications to help kids/teens at all ages sort through their God given identity when culture is opposite.
The fourth Sunday of every month is the Catalyst Store!
Don't forget to bring that Catalyst Cash!!

Exciting News for Catalyst Kids!
The Wall of Merit is here! Every month you can confidently say the memory verse without assistance a Catalyst Kid can place a clothespin with their name on the board. Each quarter we aim to highlight 3 kids who’ve been up on the board the whole quarter and let them recite a verse during service (live or via video). At the end of the year, all kids who’ve merited 12 months gets a special prize!
It is meeting day! Hope to see you all tonight.

We at HRC know that many people can be a father figure in a young man's life so we welcome brothers, a monkey's uncle, grandfathers, coach, etc. Bring lunch money as the group stops to eat lunch together afterwards. It's wise to pack a water bottle, change of clothes, watershoes/sandals/crocs, sunscreen, and a towel.Registration is required!
