Tithes and Offerings
Giving is an amazing reflection of our relationship with God. At Hills Church we believe that giving is also an integral part of our worship. We desire to both honor God and partner with him to be a blessing to the world around us. Give online securely via EasyTithe.

If you are in trouble, let us pray for you. If you are happy, let us rejoice with you. Prayer is an important and active ministry in our church’s life. We consider it a privilege to partner our faith with yours as God is invited into life’s circumstances.
