Job Board

The Hills Church is an economically and racially diverse church in northeast Denver that launched in September 2017 (and re-launched after Covid). We believe God has called us to follow Jesus, love our neighbors and to build an economically and racially diverse church. 

We are a “hybrid” church. Our Sunday meeting rhythm consists of alternating between meeting all together in a school and meeting in micro churches throughout Denver. We meet all together on the 1st and 3rd Sundays of the month and micro churches the 2nd and 4th Sundays of the month. Our rhythms emphasize our desire to build deep community and make disciples. We might be a little biased, but our church family is pretty awesome! 🙂 

Check out our website to learn more about our hybrid approach – www.TheHillsDenver.com/jobs. 

We are looking to build our team with a Family Ministry Pastor. The hope is that this person will do more than fill a role, but will become part of our family and community.

2. Organize events such as family nights or seasonal activities that foster community and outreach.

General Responsibilities
