Welcome
If you’re looking for a great church we’d love for you to visit. Join us for Worship 10:30 each Sunday in the sanctuary or live streamed. When you visit Hillsboro Methodist Church you’ll find a community of changed people; People of all ages and seasons of life. We are a group of people who love God, love our neighbor, and enjoy worship. Please visit us!
We are located at 537 Rountree Street (behind Hardees) in Hillsboro, Illinois. You can reach us by calling 217-532-3734 or sending an email to hillsboromethodistchurch@gmail.com.
Are you a Christian? To become a Christian and know that you will spend eternity in Heaven, you need to receive Jesus as your Savior, fully accepting His death as the sufficient sacrifice for your sins (John 3:16), and fully trusting Him alone as your Savior (John 14:6; Acts 4:12). Becoming a Christian is all about having a personal relationship with Jesus Christ.
Pastor Michael Lawton and the people at Hillsboro Methodist Church would welcome the opportunity to help lead you to Christ and grow in the faith, as His disciples. We hope we will see you at church soon!
