Paul Coronado

Senior Pastor

With a heart for Christ and His church, Pastor Paul and wife Shelley have served as a student Pastor for over 8 years teaching on the Love and Grace of Jesus Christ. They love the Denver Broncos and Colorado Avalanche, but above all they love their Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ! They have 3 beautiful children and 2 grandchildren. They live on a small farm outside of Bowie with their cows, chickens and three dogs and 1 cat.

Shelbi Hoot

Youth Director

My name is Shelbi Hoot, I am 30 years old, a wife to Bud Hoot and a mother to 2 beautiful daughters Leigh-Ann and Lynnleigh Hoot. We have lived in Nocona Hills for 4 years and a member of NHCC since 2016. My love for Christ and being obedient to him has opened doors like being one of the Worship Leaders here and now the Youth Director. God continues to provide for me, my family and this church and I am so glad that I get to work with him in bringing young adults to Christ.

Pam James

Office Personal

Pam is married to husband Derl James for 39 years. They moved to Nocona Hills in 1999 and joined the church at that time. Together they have 4 children, 8 grandchildren and 3 great grandchildren.

Jan Anderson

Office Personal

Jan has been involved in ministry at NHCC since moving to Nocona Hills in 1999. She married her husband Bob in Wichita Falls in 1988. She enjoys spending time with friends and family. Jan also enjoys cooking, playing golf and taking care of her dogs. "Trusting in the Lord" (Proverbs 3:5) has been Jan's strength throughout her life. It's clear to her that she has been given a heart for service and feels privileged to serve in the office assisting the Pastor and other ministries.

We don’t focus much on dogma or creed. We are unquestionably Jesus-followers, but we don't
make it a requirement to believe a certain way to belong here.
We have people from various Christian faith communities.

Our heart is non-denominational, accepting, and embracing of all.
We are learning that our walk is sometimes filled with WAY more questions than answers…about God, about ourselves, about our faith and about our religious traditions.

We are simply "re-thinking" what it really means to follow Jesus in a way that deeply engages and transforms us.

So…

If traditional church has stopped working for you…
If you are spiritual, but have issues with organized religion…
If you find yourself alone on the spiritual journey and would like to share the journey with others…

Come check us out to see if we are a fit

Iron Men Ministry

The Nocona Hills Community Church Iron Men ministry is a non-denominational gathering of men that join together at 8 am the first Saturday morning of each month to disciple, grow, and encourage one another in our faith. A goal of the ministry is for area men to learn to stand up as men of God and take our appointed roles as leaders for our families, churches, workplaces and community. We regularly enjoy a home-cooked, hearty breakfast along with great fellowship and a brief word of spiritual encouragement. We also contribute physically and monetarily to local mission efforts.

Cornerstone Ministry

Cornerstone serves our special needs community. Our leadership has a passion for teaching and connecting with teens and adults with special needs, this is a friendly place for friends and families interested in learning about the Bible and connecting with others. Though this ministry focuses on our special needs friends, all are welcome to attend. We currently meet once a month on Saturdays. Mark 16:15 says, “And he said them, “Go into all the world and proclaim the gospel to the whole creation.”

Compassion/Bereavement Ministries

“Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others, as faithful stewards of God’s grace in its various forms.” (1 Peter 4:10) The Bereavement Ministry works in unison with the Compassion Ministry providing valuable support to families. The Bereavement Ministry works to arrange food to individuals/families who have lost loved ones or are convalescing from surgery/traumatic events. Many times, this takes away that responsibility which allows family members time to care for each other. The Compassion Ministry provides support to survivors who are dealing with the phases of loss and the first time decision making issues.

Music & A/V Team Ministry

Music Ministry opportunities abound at NHCC. If you have a singing voice and would like to be on the Praise and Worship Team, or if you would like to be a part of a larger group like the Choir, there is a place for you. In addition, the Praise & Worship Team are always looking for members with instrumental talent. The Audio/Visual Team assists the Music team on Thursday night practices and on Sunday mornings. If technology is your thing, we have a place for you to fit in with this team. Experience with Microsoft is definitely to your advantage, but not required.

Women's Bible Study

The Women’s Bible Study has been the foundation of many other women’s ministries. The group has been blessed and God directed throughout the years. Lifelong friendships have developed, bonding us as we study, pray and serve others. Everyone is welcome to join in on Mondays at 2 pm in the Church Fellowship Hall.

Refuge

The name “Refuge” is an acronym for a group of women of all ages and walks of life that meet every other Monday night at 6:30 PM. These women come together to REST in the presence of God, receive ENCOURAGEMENT from others, receive/give FORGIVENESS, have UNDERSTANDING of the Word of God, experience God’s GRACE, and ENTER into meaningful relationship with God and other women. “Come to me, all of you who are weary and carry heavy burdens, and I will give you rest.” Matthew 11:28.

Veteran's Ministry

“There is no greater love than to lay down one’s life for one’s friends.” John 15:13. The United States Military men and women make this sacrifice every day. The Women's Ministry sponsors a Chili Lunch Fundraiser on the Wednesday before Veteran’s Day in November. Each year the funds are used to purchase Christmas gifts for the hospitalized and homeless. Gifts such as toiletries, jackets, warm blankets, socks, underwear, and other necessary items are given. We now serve our own Montague County Veteran’s Service, Sam Rayburn Memorial Veterans Center in Bonham, TX, as well as, the original beneficiary, Oklahoma City VA Hospital.

Prayer Chain & Card Ministry

Intercessory prayer means to “plead on behalf of another.” All believers are called to intercede for one another. If you have a prayer need or want to become one of our Warriors, contact the Church Office. Cards are sent out by the Women’s Bible Study to prayer recipients encouraging them with our continued support and thankfulness.

Hearts & Hands

The purpose of Hearts & Hands is to serve others and build relationships with women in our community. The Apostle Paul told the Romans, “If your gift is serving others, serve them well.” Our women have “hearts” for the Lord and “hands” willing to serve people in our church and community. The Ministry enjoys doing seasonal crafts and projects for various groups. Grace Care Center, Cherry Street Village, Nocona Elementary Kindergarteners and the Nocona Hills Community Church youth programs are just some of the groups that have been served.

Women's Retreat

A group of our ladies attended a retreat in East Texas in 2008. They were so inspired by the group of ladies worshipping the Lord, that they enthusiastically began making plans for the first Nocona Hills Community Church Women’s Retreat, “High Heels, Flip Flops & Running Shoes”. The annual themed event is held on a Saturday in October. This retreat day is all about being refreshed and renewed in God’s presence and word.

Prayer Shawl & Pillow Ministry

Illness sometimes requires a physical need for comfort and a reassurance that the recipient is continually in our prayers. The Women’s Ministry is blessed to have many talented ladies who craft shawls and pillows, along with handmade cards to be included with each gift. Each gift is prayed over asking for healing, peace and that it will provide comfort and love to the one who receives it. This act of kindness has proven to be an overwhelming gift of gratitude by the notes, cards and letters the Women’s Ministry receives.

R.I.S.C. Student Ministry

Deuteronomy 4:29 says, “If you seek the Lord your God, you will find Him.” and that is just what R.I.S.C. Student Ministry is designed to do. We are Readied Individuals Seeking Christ. Here, students have a place to share with their friends in Christ who understand their fears, joys, pain and disappointments. This is a time for Middle and High school students to have some fun, meet other students, share a meal, worship and "lean" into God's word. Join us for an awesome time in our amazing Youth Building every Wednesday night from 6:00 - 7:30. Pick-ups can be arranged.

Kingdom Kids

Each Wednesday from 4:30-6:00 pm, children Pre-K to 5th grade are invited to participate in this ministry. This children’s ministry is committed to teaching the true word of God and empowering the children to walk it out by faith in their daily lives. This ministry is based on the scripture that “I can do all things through Him who gives me strength.” Philippians 4:13 The children can be dropped off by the Prairie Valley and Nocona buses.

OUR PASSION is three-fold: First, OUR PASSION is to reach out to those who feel forgotten, disenfranchised, confused, excluded, hurt or just fed up for “whatever” reason, and help them to understand that God loves them EXACTLY as they are, and that He will never give up on them. Second, OUR PASSION is to equip every believer in faith, and teach them to discover their spiritual gifts, for the purpose of igniting and turning every child of God loose to do the work of the ministry! Third, OUR PASSION is for “spiritual awakening” in the earth. The Prophets of old, as well as the prophets of today, are speaking of a mighty move of God that will harvest many, many souls before the grand and glorious appearing of Jesus Christ. We are seeking to position ourselves for this."
