What We Do
Our common life is organized around four main activities:
- Inviting people into a relationship with God and God’s people (the Church)
- Including people as full members of the community
- Growing together in our faith
- Going out to share the good news in word and deed
How We Do It
We build relationships marked by:
Grace: Loving others gracefully as God loves us in Christ.
Servanthood: Humbly putting others first.
Honesty: Telling the truth in love about ourselves and each other.
Trust: Believing the best about each other and supporting church leadership.
Hospitality: Welcoming others into our lives, particularly those different from us or difficult for us.
Our Current Focus
After time spent in prayer and conversation, we concluded that in this season God has called us to invest significant time, energy, and resources to the following purpose: “As the body of Christ at Highland, we will reach the Crossroads community by focusing on children and their families.”
