Something inside you says,

There has to be another way.

You're not wrong. We started a microchurch because we felt it too — and we want to help you start one as well. Pull up a chair.

Get in Touch with us

Maybe you've sat in a crowd of hundreds and felt completely alone. Maybe you love Jesus but can't find a community that makes space for your questions. Maybe you've been told that church requires a building, a budget, and a platform — and something about that never sat right with you.

We're Javier and Danielle Mendoza, co-pastors of Hills Global Church in Tampa, FL.

We planted a microchurch because we believe the table — not the stage — is where transformation happens.

Now we're inviting others to start tables of their own.

The stage was never meant to be the focus.

We believe people make up the church — not buildings, budgets, or even leaders.

Small on purpose. Rooted in Mission

A microchurch isn't a small church trying to become a big one. It's a fully-formed expression of the body of Christ — gathered around a table, set in a neighborhood, multiplying through relationship.

Across the globe, the most rapidly growing church movements are small, decentralized, and led by everyday people — no boundaries, no buildings, no budgets.

Just a gathering of new and old friends, breaking bread together, and caring for one another.

Gathered around a table

Meals, communion, & real conversation — not a service to attend but a community to belong to.

Built to multiply

A healthy table makes room for more. Every microchurch carries the seeds of the next one.

Rooted in a neighborhood

Your living room, a coffee shop, a backyard. The church should exist where people actually live.

Led by You

No title required. Everyday believers carrying the mission is the New Testament model.

We're not watching from a distance. We're at the table too.

Hills Global isn't an institution training planters from the outside. We're a constantly developing microchurch model — actively gathering, actively learning, actively sending. When you sit across the table from us, you're sitting across from fellow travelers who started exactly where you are.

"You don't need to have it all together. You just need to pull up a chair."

We're connected to a broader network of missional movements — including the Underground Network here in Tampa Bay (home to 100+ microchurches) and global networks like Communitas International. We don't walk alone, and neither will you.
