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.
The stage was never meant to be the focus.
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 & Danielle Mendoza, co-pastors of Hills Global Church in Tampa, FL.
We planted a microchurch because we have seen that transformation happens through dialogue not monologue.
Now, we're inviting others to start tables of their own.
We believe people make up the church — not buildings, budgets, or a platform.
Hills Global is starting Jesus centered, micro church gatherings in Tampa Bay and surrounding communities near Wesley Chapel, New Tampa, Lakeland, & St. Pete
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 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.
What is a Micro Church?
Gathered around a table
Meals, communion, & real conversation — not a service to attend but a community to belong to.
Built to multiply
An intentionally set table makes room for more. Every microchurch carries the seeds of the next one.
Deeply Rooted
Your living room, a coffee shop, a backyard. The church should exist where people actually live.
Led by You
No platform required. Everyday believers carrying on the mission of welcome 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 continually learning from global networks like Communitas International, Practicing the Way, and Dwellings. We don't walk alone, and neither will you.
