Highland,

I want to thank all who made last week’s Agape Feast such a festive affair! So much took place behind the scenes beforehand, throughout and afterward – I am grateful to each and every one of you. Serving in this manner is such a clear expression of how the Lord’s directing us to go deeper – through staying together, serving together and studying together.

On that note, I continue to see such a strong response to Sunday School! To those who are leading, keep going! To those of you who are attending, I am grateful for your commitment to growing! If you’ve not had the opportunity to attend yet, please know that the door remains open to you.

To all who are facilitating Sunday mornings, I so appreciate you. From driving the van, to grabbing biscuits, leading worship, making coffee – Sunday mornings is an “us-thing.” Let’s continue to serve together, Highland, in one accord, being of one mind – the glory of our Lord and the good of one another.

highland-style yard sale was a success!

To those who took time to come out and share with our streets last Sunday, thank you! So many felt cared for and appreciated the helping hand. I celebrate your generosity, in honor of the Lord.

hank shelby to lead us in worship this sunday

Hank Shelby leads us in worship Sunday. His heart is to honor the Lord, using his God-given gifts to make an offering of praise to the name of the Lord. Side note – the last two weeks’ sermons have now been posted. I have been running a little behind in light of gearing up for the new school year over the last couple of weeks. The dust is now settling and I am catching up. Sorry for any inconvenience. Also, we held Communion last Sunday (18th). Therefore, there will be no sermon posted.

I love you, Highland.

Rob
