The Connections Ministry at National strives to make each person feel known and cared for. We desire to help individuals discover their unique gifts in growing and serving in ministry and mission.

Are you a good listener, teacher, organizer or cook? Do you like to meet new people, care for children, or work with computers? We have a place for you.

God has given you special gifts. We can help you use them to his glory. Find your calling in Christ's service at National Presbyterian Church. Talk with us to find ways to grow your faith and serve the Lord through the ministries and missions of National Presbyterian Church.
