Relational Mission
Ours is a church that hopes to look beyond ourselves and out into the world. Our
commitment to mission is a sign of how we seek God in our neighborhood and world. In one of Jesus’ most famous moments, he feeds the multitudes with five loaves and two fish. In another story, Jesus helps his frustrated disciples to secure a net full of fish by inviting them to cast their nets on the other side of the boat. They catch so many fish that there are too many to eat on their own! Ours is a church that hopes to look beyond our own needs
to do what Jesus and the disciples did—
share our fish with the world.

Affiliation
Kirk in the Hills is a congregation of the Presbyterian Church (USA) and our core beliefs are strong. Among these are the sovereignty of God, the authority of the scripture, justification by grace through faith and the ministry of all believers. What they mean is God's purpose for humanity comes from the Bible, particularly what is revealed in the New Testament through the life of Jesus Christ. Our salvation through Jesus is God's generous gift to us, and not the result of our own accomplishments. It is everyone's job, ministers and lay people alike, to share this good news with the whole world. That is also why the Presbyterian Church is governed at all levels by a combination of clergy and laity, men and women alike. As a community of faith, the Kirk congregation is warm and welcoming, open and inclusive of all ages and backgrounds, active and diverse in service of Christ and his kingdom.
We are part of the Presbytery of Detroit, find more information about the Presbytery of Detroit here.
