Good afternoon friends!

Highlands Methodist Church is in urgent need of volunteers to help us serve our community tomorrow during our Hearts & Hands Outreach event.

If you are available between 7:00 AM and 10:00 AM, we would love to have you join us. There are plenty of ways to help, including setup, welcoming guests, distributing food, and assisting families as they arrive.

This outreach provides free fresh produce and valuable resources to local families, and we cannot do it without caring volunteers willing to lend a hand.

📅 Saturday, May 30
⏰ Volunteers Needed: 7:00 AM – 10:00 AM
📍 Highlands Methodist Church
107 W. Houston St.
Highlands, TX 77562

Whether you can stay for an hour or the entire morning, your help will make a difference in the lives of our neighbors.

Today right before worship started, we experienced an unexpected situation involving a visitor that became physically aggressive toward one of our church members. It was upsetting for many who witnessed it, especially some of our children.

As pastor, I want to say how proud I am of the way our church family handled the situation. In a difficult and emotional moment, people stepped up, cared for one another, and helped bring calm to the situation and did not let it keep us from worshiping. That says something about our church.

A police report was filed, and out of an abundance of caution, we will have law enforcement present next Sunday to help provide additional comfort and reassurance for those attending worship.

The church is called to love people well while also using wisdom and taking appropriate steps to keep people safe. We appreciate your prayers for everyone involved and are grateful for this church family.

As Scripture reminds us, “We are hard pressed on every side, but not crushed.” We may be shaken, but we will not break!

Christ reigns.

Friends, I want to personally apologize to all of you that join us for worship each Sunday online. I forgot to set it up 😔 The AV team did everything correctly, however, it never actually connected to our streaming provider. We will be back online next Sunday. May Gods glory be revealed to you in mighty ways this week!

Follow God's Instructions

This Sunday at Highlands Methodist Church, we’ll gather for worship and hear a message from our lay leader, Lloyd Reeves.

The message, “Do What You Are Told” from Joshua 3:1–8, reminds us that faith often begins with simple obedience trusting God enough to follow His lead, even when we don’t see the whole picture.

God is still guiding… still speaking… still making a way.

Join us this Sunday at 10:30 AM. Bring your family, invite a friend, and come ready to listen for where God is leading you next.

You’re always welcome here.

This Sunday at Highlands Methodist Church, we’re looking forward to a special time together as our Methodist Men lead us in worship.

Our lay leader, Lloyd Reeves, will be bringing the message: “Do What You Are Told” from Joshua 3:1–8. This is a good reminder that sometimes faith looks like simply trusting God enough to take the next step He puts in front of us.

We believe God still speaks… and still leads… and still makes a way where there seems to be none.

Come join us this Sunday at 10:30 AM. Bring your family, invite a friend, and come ready to worship and listen for where God is leading you next.

You’re always welcome here.
