What to Expect
WHAT SHOULD I EXPECT AT SPRINGHILL?
As we gather together, our hope is that you will experience the presence of God through the reading of Scripture, worship, and prayer. We want to be an encouragement to you and share about the hope we have in Jesus Christ.
“A NEW COMMANDMENT I GIVE TO YOU, THAT YOU LOVE ONE ANOTHER: JUST AS I HAVE LOVED YOU, YOU ALSO ARE TO LOVE ONE ANOTHER. BY THIS ALL PEOPLE WILL KNOW THAT YOU ARE MY DISCIPLES, IF YOU HAVE LOVE FOR ONE ANOTHER.”
JOHN 13:34-35
The Lord has blessed us as a group of people who love Christ and love one another. Our ages span from newborns to those who have retired, and every generation between. We come from different backgrounds and live in the different communities surrounding the church. Some of the individuals and families we serve are from Springfield, Fair Grove, Pleasant Hope, Willard, and Bolivar.
Sunday Morning Worship
On average, our worship service is about 70 minutes in length. We begin our time together in worship with theologically accurate songs from all generations, led by musicians on guitars, drums, and piano. We have a focused time of prayer and a time for giving. Then we hear the Word of the Lord preached, holding tight to the context and truth of the passage, while being encouraged to apply these truths to our daily lives. You are welcome to participate as you feel comfortable.
Sunday Morning Bible Studies
At 9 am on Sunday mornings, we have Bible study classes available for all ages, from birth to adult. We have developmentally appropriate classes for kids and youth. For adults, we offer multiple classes, including a college class, ladies’ class and various classes designed for any adult. As you enter, the greeters are there to help you get to where you would like to go.

Music
At Springhill, we come together and worship the Lord through music each week. The purpose of this time is to worship and edify our Savior Jesus Christ. Our worship team uses their gifts on piano, drums and guitars to lead us to worship through hymns of old as well as newer songs which are written to bring glory and honor to God.
History of Springhill
The church began just north of our current location in 1908 after a brush arbor revival where God moved powerfully and 55 individuals were saved. For more than 100 years our church has been proclaiming the same message of salvation by faith in Jesus Christ. After the original building was destroyed by arson fire in 1993, we built our current location.

You can still see the service through the windows and there are some chairs, a few comfort items and a speaker so you can hear the service. The room also joins the ladies’ restroom for your convenience.
