Kid Connection

Kid Connection began way back in 1996. This how and why it began.

Since starting in ministry, Pastor Young has focused on Gospel outreach to the community. His first pastoral position was as an "outreach" pastor, in Windsor Pentecostal church, Newfoundland. After that, Pastor Young spent a year as an evangelist with "Outreach Ministries." Shortly, after that he was called to St. John's.

Much of this spiritual vision was transferred onto Pastor Young by the influence of Pastor Tommy Barnett, from Arizona, who is esteemed worldwide for his outreach programs.

Kid Connection started out of that vision, and that need. It was to bless the community, especially places of poverty, with a message of fun, hope, love and the Gospel.

In the beginning, Pastor Young took the Kid Connection program to the communities, going to various gyms throughout the city, with a night filled of music, sports, games, gifts, and the innocent message of Jesus and His Gospel.

Over time, this was consolidated, and we began to bus children into our church. We continue this to this day.

There have been many persons who have given their time and love to this cause, and currently, it is mostly headed up by Pastor Kim and her team, with the oversight of Pastor Gordon and Louise.

Often while out in the community, Pastor Young will see a now adult young person, who will tell him that Kid Connection impacted their life. That is the reason why we continue.
