Charter Service

On October 23rd 1985 Hill Country Bible Church Northwest was started by 17 people who committed themselves to see every man, woman and child in Greater Austin reached by the life-changing reality of Jesus Christ. Twenty-three years later this commitment has led to 13 churches in the Greater Austin area who long to see God glorified in Austin by seeing men and women gripped by the grace and crazy love of Jesus Christ!
On September 7th 2008 once again 17 people stepped out in faith to see God glorified and people in Central / Downtown Austin gripped by the love of God, as we chartered THE CITY community church.
It was an incredible time as we worshipped together with elders, pastors, and members of various Hill Country Association churches. We even had 3 of the original 17 in attendance as we committed ourselves to God, one another, and the people of Austin.
God has done an incredible miracle in bringing us together from 7 nations, every socio-economic background, and various generations to start this community of faith in the city and for the city!
