Worship at Hillside
Our Worship Services
At Hillside Chapel, we offer two Sunday morning worship experiences. The same sermon is preached in both services, and therefore the theme, scripture, and much of the musical text is also the same in both services. The choir anthems, musical preludes and offertories are also typically done in both services, allowing our congregation to share in these offerings. Nursery care is provided for both services along with programs for children through the 3rd Grade.
We encourage you to participate in the worship service that best leads and challenges you to fully worship God, respect the preferences of others and to explore different styles of worship. Our hope is that we grow in love, encouraging one another to know Christ in a deeper way and to seek His glory in the worship services and in every part of our lives.
