Ministries

Women

The women of Hillcrest are extremely active. There are consistent avenues of connection throughout the year. You won’t regret being a part of this God-fearing group of women.

Dig in...

Why we're here

Our goal as the Women’s Ministry team is to help the women of Hillcrest to grow spiritually by providing opportunities to come together to hear God’s word, to worship together, to meet and fellowship with other sisters-in-Christ and to encourage and comfort one another as we go through life together.

Interested in a small group?

A main focus here at Hillcrest is to make disciples that make disciples. One way we’re doing this with our women’s ministry is through Discipl(h)er. A discipl(h)er is a spiritually maturing woman that walks alongside other women, helping them to know Christ, live for Christ, and become more like Christ, by using the Word of God, the Wonder of God, and the Work of God.

We have fun

Get Involved

Mom Life
The second Monday morning of every month, join a multigenerational gathering of mothers connected to love Christ, one another, & their community. It is a time of prayer, bible teaching, fellowship, crafts and mission projects. Childcare Available by RSVP.
Yearly Conference

Each year we gather for a whole day of deep teaching focused on one area of the word that we often model from the theme of the year across the church. Childcare is available with RSVP.

Women, Worship & the word

Bible studies at Hillcrest are called Growth Groups. At WWW, we introduce the semesters classes, provide an opportunity to meet teachers, sign up, see the studies, as well as fellowship and worship together.

LATTES & LIFE

Doesn’t it seem like we don’t know what God is doing in our friends lives? Lattes & Life is sweet time of fellowship where we hear from several women across Hillcrest about what God is doing in their lives. Oh, and there will be coffee (or your breakfast drink of choice).

Women of Worth

At our Spanish Trail Campus, join us several times a year for a gathering where women can enjoy friendship and explore the real issues of life together. Bring your friends, we’ll have breakfast and a craft while we hear from our peers about life today. Free childcare available.

Discipl(h)er

We believe that one of the best ways to become a better disciple of Christ is to gather with a small group regularly to hold each other accountable and really do life together. Discipl(h)er is how we can help you get plugged into a group or get started leading one.

HOLIDAY DINNER

One of the most popular events, women host and decorate tables for the holidays and we share a meal, a sweet time of worship and teaching during the Advent season. Childcare is available with RSVP.

Fill My cup

In the Spring we offer another opportunity to host a table for a special tea party. The proceeds of which go to support missions. This is always a fun time to go a little old school and pull out those hats. Registration for this year’s event is open here.

Breathe

Nine Mile College Room
wednesday 6:30 pm

One of the greatest challenges among women in our culture is taking time to cease from all the activities and just breathe. We are in bondage to busyness. We constantly strive to complete the limitless to-do lists that hinder us from experiencing all that God has for us. By neglecting time for tranquility, serenity, and repose, we limit our Christlikeness and miss out on some of God’s greatest gifts. In the Old Testament, Sabbath was given to the Israelites as a gift, and it is still a gift to us today. If you are weary, worn out, and exhausted, then the concept of Sabbath will change your life.
