WHO WE ARE |
|
Hillside Community Church is an independent, non-denominational, bible church located in Enumclaw, Washington. We are an affiliate of IFCA.
We
began as Country Bible Church in
1956. In 1988 part of the
congregation was led to establish a new body, Grace Bible Church.
In the summer of 2002, the Lord led both congregations to seek
His direction on rejoining as one body, and by His grace we became one
body again in August. Many times in the Bible, when the Lord changed a
person's heart, He also changed their name as a witness to what He had
done. In March of 2003 we changed our name to Hillside Community Church
as a witness to what the Lord has done in our midst.
The
emphasis of our ministry at Hillside Community is reaching out to others
through a small group ministry.
In a small group ministry there is an opportunity to study the word,
encourage, support and share the needs of one another in a less formal
setting. Visitors, friends,
neighbors and those seeking to know more about Christ are encouraged to
attend these gatherings. Small
groups are also places where future leaders in the body are identified
and developed.
The
focus at Hillside Community is that all we are and do is because Christ
is the head of our local body and is living His life out through us
individually and corporately as we yield to the work of the Holy Spirit
in conforming us to His image.
God the Father is continuing His work in us so that daily we are
learning to be more and more dependent on the life of the resurrected
Jesus as our very life.
Our
worship service includes both the traditional aspects of music and
teaching, as well as a time for sharing needs and praying for one
another. We desire to make our
worship service a place where visitors feel lovingly welcomed and at
home.
If you are looking for a church where you will be part of a family, then we encourage you to come to one of our services or contact us. |
