High Pointe Weekender for Pastors and Church Leaders February 22-25

February 21st, 2024

This weekend we have the privilege of hosting about 70 pastors and church leaders from around the nation. In partnership with 9Marks, this weekender allows pastors and church leaders to gather to discuss what a healthy church is, while also observing our elders meeting, our worship gathering, and our members’ meeting.

Some of these pastors will be eager and excited. Sadly, though, some of them will come with heavy burdens. We hope to feed them, encourage them, love on them, and send them on their way refreshed.

Would you join us in praying for those who will be with us this weekend. That God may encourage them and grant them grace. That God would sustain them and give them hope. And that we would encourage them and love them well.

Thank you, High Pointe, for being so faithful, loving, and encouraging. We are able to host these brothers because of your generosity.

February 25 | Members Meeting | 5:00 PM
One of the expectations we have of each other at High Pointe is to gather for our members’ meeting. It’s not just a time of doing “business.” It’s our family meeting. It’s the time when we hear about the work the Lord is doing among us and through us. It’s when we introduce those who are coming in to the church and let the church know of those who are joining another church. It’s when we inform the church of our stewardship together. And it’s when we celebrate the Lord’s grace toward us. Join us!

March 2 | Engaging Our Neighbors
Join us every first Saturday of the month as we gather in the foyer to pray for our community, then go out and meet our neighbors with the hope of sharing the gospel. Everyone is welcome!

March 3 | Senior Adult Breakfast | 9:00 AM | Fellowship Hall
Senior adults, join us on Sunday, March 3, for fellowship and food. We thank God for you, and we look forward to encouraging one another.

Life Classes | Sundays at 9:00 AM
Life Classes are meant to equip High Pointe for life as a Christian. We encourage you to take advantage of this opportunity and join us. This session, we are offering the following classes from January 28 to March 10:

A Survey of the NT from Acts to Revelation (Livingston Room) | This class will explore the New Testament from Acts to Revelation under the theme of the king and his kingdom. This class will provide us with a general knowledge and understanding of the early church, important theological themes, and how it applies to our daily lives.
Panorama General del NT: Hechos – Judas (East Training Room) | Una clase para equiparnos con un conocimiento general de los libros acerca de la Iglesia primitiva, explorando temas teológicos importantes y como impactan nuestras vidas diarias.
Kids Life Class (Overflow Room/Old Mission Room) | We also offer childcare and a Life class for Kids, K-5th grade, that uses The Gospel Project, a study that “helps kids dive deep into the big story of the Bible – God’s plan to rescue His people through His Son, Jesus Christ”.
Membership class (Old Library) | Our Meaningful Membership Class is offered on Sunday mornings as well.
