Forming lives that transform culture.

Born out a prayer meeting that continues to this day, Hilltop is a multicultural church of students, professionals, and families that is rooted in the Word of God, passionate in worship, and devoted to prayer. We are committed to raising up people who follow the way of Jesus and carry out the mission of Jesus.

Our vision is to see students, professionals, and families come alive in their walk with God, to touch the needs of the community around us, and to prepare every person who walks through our doors to go share Christ to the ends of the earth.

Values

  • Worship

    Worship is our chance to exalt God, and to experience His tangible presence. We place a high value on worship because God is worthy of our full expression.

  • Word

    The Word of God is sacred to us, and stands above culture, philosophies, and man-made ideas. We strive to let the word of God search us, rather than reading into it our own ideas and interpretations.

    Statement of Faith >

  • Community

    Relationship is the context where transformation takes place over time. We were never meant to be lone rangers: we believe that loving each other and growing in relationship is fundamental to a healthy walk with God.

Community Groups are the center of where small group fellowship, discipleship, and intentional study of the Bible happen throughout the week. Our groups are exclusively for those who attend Hilltop as their home church, as their main purpose is to disciple Hilltop members. We have mostly in person groups and a few Zoom options.

Ministries

  • Prayer

    Hilltop was born out of a prayer meeting that began in 2006, and has only gotten stronger. We are praying that God would revive Boston, and raise up another global student volunteer missions movement out of the campuses of the Northeast.

    Today, that intercession and devotional prayer meeting is going multiple days a week, and it remains the nucleus of our thriving community.

    Public Prayer Sets:

    Morning: Monday 7am-8:30am
    Evening: Mon, Tues, Wed 7pm-9pm
    Flagship Set: Wednesday 7pm-9pm

  • Children

    It is our great joy and privilege to serve our children. We have a talented, caring, Jesus loving and fun loving team who teach our kids. Our weekly program is built around the The Gospel Project children’s curriculum that walks through the Bible Genesis to Revelation and looks to find the Christ connection in every chapter and page of the Bible. Our goal is that our children would encounter Christ, learn sound doctrine, be filled with the Holy Spirit and transformed by the power of the gospel from their earliest years.

    We have programs for children ages 1-12 during the message at the 11am Sunday service.

  • Youth

    We’re so excited to invite all middle & high schoolers to join us each Sunday (except for the last Sunday of the month) after worship for teaching and discipleship.

    This is the generation of those who seek Him, who seek the face of the God of Jacob.” — Psalm 24:6

  • Alpha

    Alpha is an introductory course about Christianity that is designed for anyone exploring faith. It is designed to be an open, safe space to ask questions about God and life, both easy and hard, and it is centered around discussion, not just providing the "right" answer to everything. We don't hold any expectation of any particular outcome at the end of the course, and it is not expected that you would join our church.

    We have a meal together (food is provided), and then watch a short Alpha film, followed by open discussion. To join Alpha, send us an email at info@hilltopboston.com.

  • Multiply

    Multiply is the next step for someone who wants to grow in their faith and become a mature believer in Christ. These groups are centered around discussion and studying the Word of God together, as well as opportunities to be poured into and mentored by others.

  • Couples

    We provide ministry to couples through building intentional relationships where we can get to know each other, ask the hard questions that will help us truly grow, and learn how to walk out marriage God’s way.

    We have periodic pop-up events to help foster these relationships - click here to sign up.
