We continue our Summer worship schedule (10:00 a.m.) on this Pentecost Sunday, and hope you will join with us for worship, and for lemonade in the shade on the front patio afterward.
This summer, Highland offers multiple opportunities for learning, serving, fellowship, and caring, and we hope you’ll find ways to take part! While our regularly-scheduled activities may pause for the summer, our opportunities to grow do not. Please see below, and be sure to see our June issue of Highlights, to learn about more ways to take part in our life together.
Sunday Worship at 11:00 a.m. or Online
Scripture Readings: Genesis 11:1-9; Acts 2:1-12
