Community Impact
The Community Impact Ministry equips and sends the people of Hill Country Bible Church to bless our community and saturate Greater Austin with the love of Jesus. As individuals grow in their walk with God, we develop and empower them to help lead our movement of changed lives that impacts Greater Austin for Christ.

Saturday, December 9th
The Christmas Store serves families that are working people who simply cannot absorb the added expenses of the holiday season. Gifts, holiday meals, traveling to see relatives and friends, or even purchasing a Christmas tree can be an extravagance they simply can’t afford.
At the Store, families will be able to purchase new gifts for $1, $3, $5, and $10 ($20 for bicycles), taking the stress out of the holiday season.
We invite you to help by volunteering your time at the Christmas Store, donating toys, or making a financial contribution for toys.
Let’s bring JOY & HAPPINESS to those who need a little HOPE this Christmas!
