Local Impact is how The Highlands serves our neighbors, meets practical needs, and reaches beyond our walls to share the love of Jesus throughout our community.
Through ongoing outreach ministries, community partnerships, and practical service, there are opportunities to make a difference right here where we live.
Following Jesus moves us toward people.
We believe making an impact means seeing the needs around us and responding with compassion, generosity, and practical action.
Whether we're providing food, caring for those experiencing homelessness, or bringing hope to those who are incarcerated, our goal is simple: to help people experience the love of Jesus.
“Love your neighbor as yourself. — Mark 12:31
Meeting practical needs with compassion.
The Highlands Food Pantry provides groceries and essential resources to individuals and families throughout our community.
Whether you're helping prepare, organize, distribute food, or serve our guests, every role helps create an environment where people are welcomed, cared for, and treated with dignity.
Highlands Homeless Outreach (H2O) serves individuals experiencing homelessness throughout our community by providing practical resources, care, and meaningful connection.
Through H2O, we have the opportunity to meet people where they are, respond to immediate needs, and remind them that they are seen, valued, and loved.
Bringing hope beyond the walls.
Our Prison Ministry exists to bring encouragement, biblical truth, and the hope of Jesus to those who are incarcerated.
As this ministry continues to develop, opportunities to serve and get involved will be shared here.
Throughout the year, Local Impact also includes seasonal outreach, community events, special projects, and opportunities to serve alongside trusted organizations throughout our region.
Check back regularly for new opportunities to make an impact.
We believe lasting impact happens through relationship.
By partnering with organizations, ministries, and community leaders throughout our region, we're able to respond to real needs and serve our neighbors more effectively.
Every number has a story.
Behind every meal distributed, person served, conversation shared, and volunteer hour is someone who matters to God.
Together, we can make a meaningful difference throughout our community.
Love your neighbor. Serve your community.
Whether you have an hour, a Saturday, or a heart for a specific need, there is a place for you to make an impact.
