Remember & Celebrate!

This June, as a leadership team, we're revisiting what God has done this last budget year, planning, praying, and anticipating what God might be doing next year. 

Watch last Sunday’s sermon “Water + Rocks = Life” a Be-Side from our Becoming A Dwelling Place series

In two weeks we’ll present a new Ministry Plan for 2026-2027, discerning together and voting on where God is leading our church body next year! 

And I thought you might join us in looking back in order to look forward to all God has ahead…

Let’s remember some of the amazing things God has done at High Street this last year:

Thank You, Jesus, for all the amazing things you’ve been doing at High Street!

It’s impossible to tabulate the impact of these events, initiatives, experiences, and relationships…

But I do see the light in your eyes.

I see the excitement in our services.

I see the growing love for one another.

I see the expectancy for God to move in us, among us and through us.

I see our hearts longing for others to know Jesus.

What more can we ask for?!

“You crown the year with your bounty; your wagon tracks overflow with abundance”
‭‭Psalm‬ ‭65‬:‭11.‬

Jesus, continue to move among us, align us with Your presence and leadership, show us Your way, transform us and the lives around us!

We only want You! Do whatever You want to do!

Amen,

Pastor Dave
