OUR TEAM
THE PEOPLE BEHIND THE SCENES.
Different roles, one mission - to help people belong to Jesus’ people, believe in Jesus, and become more like Jesus.
MINDE SMYTH

Minde loves helping people discover a faith that is honest, practical, and rooted in Jesus. She believes church should be a place where people can be fully known, ask real questions, and experience genuine community. She especially loves seeing people find their place at Hillside and grow into who God created them to be.

HOW LEADERSHIP WORKS AT HILLSIDE
CONNECTED TO SOMETHING BIGGER. ROOTED RIGHT HERE.
Hillside is part of the Evangelical Covenant Church (ECC), while also being a locally governed congregation. Our pastors and ministry leaders provide spiritual and day-to-day leadership, while our Leadership Team and congregation share responsibility for the direction and stewardship of the church.
This means we get to be part of a bigger family of churches across the country and around the world, while also staying deeply rooted in our local community here in Denver.
