small groups

Gatherings and groups are an essential part of our church, as they provide a place where deeper fellowship, growth-oriented nurturing, and better support for one another can take place. At HCC, we believe that these gatherings are absolutely vital to our spiritual lives. Considering that the early church worshiped in large settings in the synagogues as well as in homes, we unite together similarly in order to be in deeper fellowship with God and one-another. God has reconciled us not only to Himself but also to each other. This "each other" is called His Church. Thus, we intentionally strive toward community through men's/women's groups, home gatherings, small groups, and other personal settings.

youth ministry

We're a GOOD kind of awkward!

come & spend your friday night with us!

We focus on serving our middle school and high school youth through Bible studies, topical teachings, inspiring worship, small group discussions, retreats, and social/bonding nights! Our weekly sessions begin with dinner (provided by our volunteers) at 6:15pm and we generally end around 9:00pm.


If you’re into raw authentic biblical youth community, you have come to the right place! By raw, we mean unpolished, honest, and with the intention to meet today's youth right where they are.


Contact our Director Machiko Aliipule for more information: machiko@hccyouth.org
