Hillside Christian Church

You’re Welcome

Hungry for Something More in Your Life?
When Jesus said, “I am the bread of life…those who come to me will never hunger…or thirst” (John 6: 35), we think he was talking about nourishing people’s deepest needs. We recognize some folks need God’s larger purpose in their life. Some folks literally need meat and potatoes; others need friendship; others need to learn new things; still others need to share themselves in loving-service. Through Hillside Christian Church’s mission, ministry and life together, we want to create a table where everyone is welcome; a hospitable place where God’s kindness, faithfulness, joy, justice, and love can meet the hungers in your life.

CYF Mission Trip Mixer - 5-7:30 pm on Saturday, May 5th. We will meet at Hillside for a taco dinner, get-to-know-you games and a viewing of a documentary about Detroit. The youth and adults from South Summit Christian Church will join us for this evening!!
On Easter Sunday, Hillside Christian Church welcomed the following youth as new members through the sacrament of baptism: Jonathan, Robbie, Elizabeth, Thea and Angel. We should all be very proud of these young people for dedicating their lives to Christ. They each attended a one-day retreat and several weeks of classroom learning in the “Tour of Life Baptism and Confirmation Classes”.
Welcome to a journey to discern, discover and develop a vision of God’s future for Hillside Christian Church! We will be engaging in a spiritual strategic journey in the months ahead as we seek to feed people ‘real food.’ It will be a journey filled with opportunities for insights, reflections, conversation, and action, but my hope is that it will be more a journey in the direction of the full Kingdom potential for our congregation in response to a God-called, Christ-centered, faith-based sense of vision and mission.
Everything is quickly coming together for 2012 Vacation Bible School! At recent planning meetings, the excitement was building! This year's theme is New Creation. the dates for VBS are July 15-19 and the family picnic will be held at Macken Park on July 20th from 5:30-7:30pm. All are welcome! This is a very rewarding experience for people of all ages. We still need volunteers. Go here to fill out a volunteer form.
On Sunday, May 20th, Hillside Christian Church will honor all of our graduates. It is a joy to share these important milestones and to honor the students and those who have supported them.
Come and join the Hillside Women for our 2nd annual Women's Fellowship Brunch! All women are invited: grandmothers, moms, children, sisters, aunts, daughters!! A representative from Synergy Services will share how they assist women & children who are victims of violence. Throughout April we are sponsoring a Women's Career Clothing Drive for Synergy.
We are here every Sunday to worship God!
8:00am Traditional Chapel Service
9:15am Sunday School for all ages
10:30am Sanctuary Service (a blend of praise music, hymns, choral music, with a focus on the Lord's Supper and preaching/teaching)
Each year Hillside participates in the outdoor ministry programs made available by our region, the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) of Greater Kansas City. These summer camps, available for children and youth in grades K-12, are extraordinary opportunities for young people to grow in faith and character while building friendships with peers and adult mentors from around the KC Metro area.
