Outreach
Church of the Highlands has many outreach opportunities, locally and around the world.
| "For I was hungry and you gave Me something to eat; I was thirsty and you gave Me something to drink; I was a stranger and you took Me in; I was naked and you clothed Me; I was sick and you took care of Me; I was in prison and you visited Me...I assure you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of Mine, you did for Me." Matthew 25:35-36 & 40 |

Church of the Highlands has many ongoing projects that allow us to reach out to local, domestic and worldwide communities. In addition to the projects highlighted here, we are working on a YOUTH CENTER. By having a dedicated space for our young people to meet, worship and learn, we'll be able to better meet their needs. They are the church of the future. Watch this section for details as our project progresses. |
Our next trip to Mendota will be on September 11. The bus leaves at 7:00 AM. We are reaching out to a small community in the Central Valley. The town of Mendota has a high unemployment rate of over 47% and the people are hurting. Our team travels to Mendota once a month to bring badly needed food and clothing and the message of hope, salvation, and Christ's love. Some of our ladies provide free haircuts, and the men will be making minor home repairs. Pastor Hugo Tejada invites you to join the team. If you can't make the trips, there are other ways to help. |

As Christians, we have great news to share with the world. We offer classes to help you learn to share your faith and we offer opportunities to do so. Don't keep the good news to yourself! Through personal evangelism, church events, concerts, community events and more, we hope to win our families and our community for Jesus Christ. |
Our neighbors south of the border are near and dear to our hearts. Over the years we have had many teams of adults, youth and families help witih building projects and other ministries. Several times a year a team goes to Mexico to minister at an orphanage in the Mexicali area. |

We have been involved in several missions projects in the Philippines including:
|
Our current focus in Borneo is on the "Living Waters Village". This village is a missionary outreach to orphans and other children from jungle villages. Providing the gospel, safety, medical attention, and a Christian education are the priorities. Our previous focus in Borneo was on an orphanage for children left without parents due to conflicts in the area. In addition to the orphanage, we were able to supply them with chickens to help the orphanage become self-sufficient. They are able to trade the eggs and their fresh baked bread for needed food and other items. |
