A Highlands Affirmation

"As followers of Jesus,
we want to be a community that gathers and takes risks:
to receive and engage a diversity of people..."

This means people of different ages, genders or sexual orientations.
This means people of different abilities, ethnic backgrounds or economic circumstances.
This means that all people will have access to...
  • a safe, respectful and welcoming community.
  • the gifts and experiences of one another.
  • celebrations of life passages like baptism, confirmation, marriage,
    blessings, healing, and care at the time of death and dying.
  • the opportunity to share in our whole vision.

Whoever you are...
Wherever you are on your faith journey...
Whatever you want to ask...
... you are welcome and accepted.

Our Vision Statement

As followers of Jesus, we want to be a community that gathers and takes risks:

to receive and engage a diversity of people,
to celebrate life-giving worship,
to love and be loved,
to know and be known,
to serve and be served,
to learn, pray and grow together.

Trusting in God, we want to be people who scatter:

to live out faith in action,
to seek peace, justice and healing,
to share time, ministries and money.

Led by the Spirit, we are continually transformed on this journey.
