Worship

PARTICIPATING IN WORSHIP

As United Methodists, we offer our best in worship when we invite people into a deep relationship with God through Jesus Christ, using the time-honored worship traditions of early Christianity. When we gather as a faith community to celebrate God’s grace through Christ, He empowers us to then go into the world to share in word and deed what we have experienced.

Highlands United Methodist Church offers traditional worship for contemporary people.
