Worship

Stained glassPraise the Lord, all you nations! For great is God’s steadfast love toward us, and the faithfulness of the Lord endures forever. Praise the Lord! Psalm 117

 

We worship together, we support each other, we serve others.   Come Worship with us!

 

Worship is central to Hillcrest. Worship is about relationship—relationship with God, God’s creation, and each other. In worship we come together to encounter and experience God in ways that transform. Come and participate in the many spiritually rich opportunities to worship God in community with others.

 

MusiciansWorship service:
Summer Schedule Sundays 10:00 a.m.
;
10:30 a.m. beginning the second Sunday in September.
Our services are meant for the whole “family” or “come as you are.” Music varies from organ, piano, rock, folk, and country to classic hymns to chants.  Our all-volunteer choir sings an anthem most Sundays and other musicians offer varied music.

 Choir

Hymns and anthems cover a spectrum of music from classical to gospel to praise, old traditional and new. Members of the congregation assist in leading the worship and music.

Kids in WorshipA Children’s Moment may be included early in the service, after which young children leave the service to meet in the upper campus. Youth participation in the service is often a part of the worship experience.

 

Communion

Communion From ancient times, communion has been celebrated within faith communities as a most sacred, central, form of encountering God in Jesus Christ and with each other. At Hillcrest, we serve Communion on the first Sunday of the month at both services, and weekly during the seasons of Advent and Lent at the 8:30 service. All are welcome at the Lord’s table! For further information about communion, click here.

 

Special Services Wednesday evening services in the special seasons of Advent and Lent are offered. Outdoor services, Music Sunday, Blessing of the Animals, the Longest Night and other special services are offered routinely.

Man MeditatingMeditation Services are held bi-weekly and monthly in small groups.  See the Hillcrest Christian Meditation website for more information and times and locations.
Taizé Services are held at Hillcrest on a rotating basis with other local churches.
