Our Staff...

They don't do all the work, (volunteers do a lot as well!) but our staff is an integral part of what we try to do here at Hillside. Get to know them, you'll be glad you did! 

Rev. Andrew Beck, ​Sr. Minister

Andy began ministry at Hillside in 2015 after over 15 years serving congregations in Oklahoma. A lifelong Disciple, Rev. Beck has an M.Div. degree from Phillips Seminary in Tulsa, OK. He's married to Elizabeth & they have 2 wonderful kids. Fun Fact: Andy's favorite music group is a ska band from the 90's called Five Iron Frenzy.

​Darin Parker, ​Music Director

Darin has been at Hillside since 2010 and leads our praise team, Hillside Singers and Hillside Ringers. It's been said that Hillside has some of the best church music north of the Missouri River, and if that's true, it's because of Darin! A Grammy Award winner, Darin also teaches vocal and piano lessons. Fun fact: Darin has an awesome dog named Giuseppe.
