Winter Connection is an annual event for both Middle School and High School youth that takes place in the Bismarck, Rapid City, and Brookings areas. This is an opportunity for youth around the area to gather, share, worship, and serve others. Each year there is a focus on a particular theme and scripture along with a unique and important component of service. This year our theme is   "Standing in the Gap,"  and our scripture is   Ezekiel 22:30.
