All too often we find ourselves in the “unenviable middle” between our faith and our culture.  And yet that is exactly where God has placed us.  As we understand our faith, we can also understand how to live our faith in a pluralistic society in a way that is  winsome and attractive.  This summer through various passages such as 1 Corinthians 9 and Daniel 1-6 we will explore how to grow in our faith, and at the same time engage our culture.  This will help us avoid two unfortunate and ineffective extremes.  To withdraw from culture and isolate in somewhat of a Christian “ghetto” hides the good news of Jesus.  To morph into the culture and be just like everyone else also hides the good news making it ineffective.  The solution we will propose is to “Engage.”   Join us each week at 10:00 AM (CDT) as we journey together to engage the culture for Jesus.

What to Expect on a Typical Sunday
 
Each Sunday we gather at 10:00 AM.   
We invite all ages to be part of our time together as we begin.  However, we understand that it may be more comfortable for Infants and Toddlers to be in a nursery that we provide.
 
Dress is casual and comfortable.
 
Our music is a blend of that which is relatively contemporary and traditional
We will dismiss children up through 5th Grade to attend an age appropriate class during the sermon.   
 
Following the sermon all children return to the Auditorium for a time of response to the sermon through song.

 

Our Purpose

Our Mission: Loving God and Loving Others as Together we Follow Jesus Christ.
 
Pleasant Hill Community church was established to serve our community.
The Bible says in I Peter 4:10-11
Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others, as faithful stewards of God’s grace in its various forms. If anyone speaks, they should do so as one who speaks the very words of God. If anyone serves, they should do so with the strength God provides, so that in all things God may be praised through Jesus Christ.
 
 
 
Together we are working to:
Proclaim the Good News of Jesus Christ.
Honor God in ALL We Do. 
Connect in Relationship.
Care for the Needs of Our Community.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

PHCC MINISTRIES

We endeavor to minister to the whole family.  We begin as early as possible to teach children about God who loves them.  We seek to apply the lessons of the Bible to each age group in age appropriate ways.  Our childcare workers and volunteers are screened so that we do our best to provide a safe and secure learning environment.    We involve all ages in our ministry.

Missions

Pic44We view missions as a major ministry of Pleasant Hill Community Church. The vision and goal of Missons is to carry out the command of Christ’s Great Commission as we partner with individuals and agencies to make disciples of all nations.
 
Matthew 28:19-20 (NIV)
“Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,  and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.”
 
PHCC currently partners with 12 Missionaries and their families worldwide. We have a primary focus to raise up individuals from our own congregation to be active in making disciples globally. To that end 5 of our 12 Missionary families have formative roots in our church.  We also partner with two local organizations, Life Spring Women’s Ministry in Aurora, IL and World Relief Chicagoland.. below are the mission organizations with whom we are ministry partners and links to their web sites.
