Short-term Missions

Highlands is committed to giving an increasing number of our members personal exposure to the mission field in the coming years.  In order to do this, the Missions Committee offers one to two week mission trips to various parts of the world each year. 

In 2009, Highlands sent a team of youth and adults to Uganda in June.   The team participated in graduation ceremonies at the Uganda Bible Institute, and was also involved in offering vacation Bible school for children, a retreat for women, and doing sports ministry as well. 

The next short-term missions experience to be offered by Highlands will be a trip for adults to New York City, July 10th - 18th.  The team will be working with MTW missionaries Dick and Sharon Sechler and Jim and Karan Romaine in their ministry with internationals in Queens.  The team in forming now--for more information on how to apply to join, email team leader Lee Hutchings at cleehutchings@gmail.com.
