At Hillside Church, our values shape how we live, worship, serve, and walk together as a church family. They guide our decisions, form our culture, and help us remain faithful to the way of Jesus.

These are the commitments we hold together.

Rooted in the Word

“Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly.” — Colossians 3:16
"Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path" - Psalm 119:105

God’s Word is our foundation. We believe the Bible is living and active — shaping who we are and how we live. In a world of shifting values, Scripture grounds us, guides us, and transforms us.

We open God’s Word regularly.
We listen humbly.
We seek to live it faithfully.

We Are Family

“God sets the lonely in families.” — Psalm 68:6
“One generation shall commend Your works to another.” — Psalm 145:4

Hillside is more than a gathering — we are a spiritual family. Our bond is formed through the love of Jesus, who has made us brothers and sisters in Him.

We value being a multigenerational church, where every person has a place, a purpose, and a voice. We learn from one another, care for one another, and walk side by side in faith — from generation to generation.

Formed by Grace

“It is by grace you have been saved, through faith.” — Ephesians 2:8
“He who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion.” — Philippians 1:6

We believe God is at work in every person — shaping, forming, and growing us by His grace. At Hillside, faith is not about having it all together, but about becoming who God is calling us to be.

This is a place where you are safe to grow.
A place where questions are welcomed.
A place where people are trusted, encouraged, and given room to become.

Because grace meets each of us where we are, we celebrate the diversity of stories, cultures, and backgrounds within our church family. We believe we grow stronger together as we make space for one another and trust God’s work in every life.

For Our Community

“Seek the peace and prosperity of the city… pray to the Lord for it.” — Jeremiah 29:7

We believe Airdrie should be better because Hillside Church is here. We are not only a church that gathers — we are a church that goes.

We serve our city with compassion, generosity, and prayer, seeking to reflect the heart of Jesus in everyday, practical ways. Our faith is lived beyond Sundays as we love our neighbours and work for the flourishing of our community.

As Family, We Go

We are a family not by blood, but a family bought by the blood of Jesus.

Together, we move forward — rooted in God’s Word, shaped by love, united across cultures, and committed to serving our city.

As family, we go.

In the spirit of reconciliation, we acknowledge that we live, work and play on the traditional territories of the Blackfoot Confederacy (Siksika, Kainai, Piikani), the Tsuut’ina, the Îyâxe Nakoda Nations, the Métis Nation (Region 3), and all people who make their homes in the Treaty 7 region of Southern Alberta.
