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!

The Hillsboro Methodist Church is celebrating 200+ years of Christ centered worship!
