Hillside Membership

Jesus has designed the Christian life in such a way that Christians are mutually dependent on each other in their walk with Him. It is only in a committed fellowship of believers that true individual growth can be achieved. It is in our covenanted commitment to one another that we learn the lessons of love and grace, that we experience life together.

Membership is designed to enfold people into the body of the church – it is an outward sign of their commitment to this particular body of believers. Members are encouraged to participate in the decision making processes of the church, and to consider how their spiritual gifts can be exercised for the benefit of the body. Each person has their own unique contribution to make, and we are all needed in order to discern the will of God in church governance. Members are also eligible to stand for office within the church
