Youth Ministries

Hillside Park Baptist has implemented numerous opportunities for our youth. A newly renovated and updated nursery is available during services for infants to two year olds.  Nursery volunteers are there to care for your children. Every Sunday, children's church is provided during the worship service for ages three to five.  Students are dismissed from the sanctuary for this class.  Wednesday nights at 7:00 pm, we offer exciting youth classes for ages three through senior high.  The truths of the Bible are taught at age appropriate levels using KJV curriculum and resources.  Once a month, we have Wonderful Wednesday.  During this time our whole group comes together for a special night beginning with a devotion.  Wonderful Wednesdays have included:  playing in a snowball tournament, enjoying a hot chocolate bar, Christmas caroling at nursing homes, enjoying a variety of food trucks and observing the FaithForce strongman group. Outreach events on Wednesdays have consisted of:  volunteering to help local organizations and elderly church members, developing a partnership with NC Baptist Children's Home and creating ministry items to pass out during the Thomasville Christmas Parade.  Many fun events and outreach ministries are scheduled to engage and encourage our youth to reach the world for Christ. Unique excursions beyond Sundays and Wednesdays have been:  snow tubing, visiting Lazy 5 Ranch, riding on the church float/handing out Bibles during the Thomasville Christmas Parade, homeschooler lunches,  and attending day church/week church camps. We can't wait to have you join HPBC Youth!

 

 

Toy Store Ministry

The Toy Store Ministry is one our largest ministries at Hillside Park Baptist Church.  It is meant to be a blessing to all the families we are able to help, however the biggest blessing is to everyone involved in the ministry.  Applicant families are generally from Davidson county but some of the families have come from Forsyth and Guilford counties.  The ministry doesn't begin and end during the Christmas season but has become a year around activity.  The gathering and purchasing of toys continues all throughout the year and applications are sent out to families in need of this ministry around the first of November. Each applicant is called to set an appointment to come in to the church to receive their blessing. We share God's Word and pray with each family prior to giving them the toys for their children. Some of these families don't know Jesus as their savior and are given their first opportunity receive His salvation which is by far the most priceless gift they could receive.

 

Choir and Special Music

Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord. Colossians 3:16

 

At Hillside Park Baptist Church we seek to edify the Lord and welcome the Holy Spirit into our Worship Services with Traditional Hymns and Southern Gospel Music. We have a wide range of talent represented at our church through our music program. We have several piano players, guitar players, a drummer and several solo, duet, trio and quartet singers. We have a choir that consist of approximately 50 members. We have choir practice on the first and fourth Sunday of each month. On the fifth Sunday of the month we have a time of special music that spotlights the musical and singing talents within the church.

 

We have a Sound Room that consist of five dedicated members that work hand in hand with the music program. They ensure that every note and word sung and spoken can be clearly heard and understood with crisp dictation and enriching tones. We have two screens that are controlled from the Sound Room that the Sound Technician can broadcast announcements, the title and Scripture location of the sermon. Each service is live broadcast through our website so our services can be viewed worldwide.

 

If God has blessed you with a song in your heart and a desire to praise Him through singing or you are interested in learning how to become a Sound Technician, we welcome you to come and sing and worship with our music program.

 

 

Coping with Cancer Though Christ

AN OUTREACH MINISTRY OF "HILLSIDE PARK BAPTIST CHURCH" Coping with Cancer through Christ is a support group made up of survivors of all different types of cancer.  Our Pastor has survived cancer three times as well.  But, this ministry is not exclusive to those within our church.  It is our desire to reach out into our community and help those who are affected by cancer, through support with prayer and fellowship.  We want them to know that they are not alone in their battle with cancer.  We meet the 2nd Tuesday of each month at 6:00 in our church fellowship hall.  Light refreshments are provided at each meeting. Our outreach ministry consists of baskets with beanies in them that some of the ladies within the church have made.  We currently have baskets at the Lexington Cancer Center and at the Derrick L Davis Hematology and Oncology Clinic in Lexington.  We also setup a ministry table at Relay for Life in Lexington in the month of May to pass out bible tracks, ribbons and other handsome items.  This past July was our first time setting up our ministry table for the week at the Southeast Thresher's Reunion in Denton, NC.  It is such a blessing to be able to reach out to others and have them share their experiences with us. If you or someone you know could benefit from the interaction of this group, we would love to have you join us.

Teen Life

 

Teen Life This year we have the middle school program called “Teen Life”. In my opinion it’s a great curriculum for a developing teen. “Teen Life” really helps teenagers start applying the Bible to their life. Some of the themes include: Issues of Life, Christian Character Traits, Christian Leadership Principles, Bible Characters, and Bible Doctrines just to name a few. So bring your teenager, and allow them to get Biblical tools that work, on a sometimes complicated life.
