INTERNATIONAL MISSIONS
HighPoint Church has two sister churches in Honduras. We take teams often to build relationships and do projects to bless the communities of Potrerillos and Choloma. Through these relationships we have been blessed!
COMPELLED BY CHRIST
Keith Barker, a member of HPC was burdened with a passion. He opened a children’s home to help get kids off the streets and out of over-crowded government run orphanages. For more information, visit his website www.compelledbychrist.com.
HELPING HANDS OF CHRIST
Henry Smith, a member of HPC, is also pursuing his passion in the nation of Honduras. He has started a ministry to help raise support for pastors in Honduras, Helping Hands of Christ. His dream is to find churches in the United States to partner with churches in Honduras. This sister church relationship is such a blessing!

LOCAL MISSIONS
HighPoint is always looking for ways to bless the community that we are part of! Here are some ways that we do that:
Operation Backpack – we collect and provide food on the weekends to needy students at Janie Howard Wilson Elementary.
Rudolph’s Round Up – During the Christmas season we partner with Heartland for Children to provide Christmas for children in foster care.
JHW Elementary Mission Group – A group that is committed to helping a local elementary school with projects and outreach throughout the school year.
Hygiene Pantry – The women’s ministry at HPC collects and stocks the hygiene pantry for Lake Wales High School.
GROUP LIFE
Our small groups are intended to provide a unique way for church goers to connect with each other, outside the Sunday service. You cannot possibly get connected or meet all the new people on a Sunday, as our service is just too big. That is why we encourage everyone to get involved in a small group ministry. You’ll develop deep friendships and learn to do life together with other believers.
