We have many amazing teams of volunteers available for you to join them. Serving on a team make a difference in the lives of every person who comes through our doors, from the parking lot to the platform. We encourage you to join a team, make new friends, and share God’s love by serving others.
This is your invitation to be part of what God is doing at The Highlands Church!
Serve at The Highlands
Ministry Opportunities
-
House Group Leader
House Groups are a great way to connect with others and build relationships. As a House Group Leader you will connect people in your group and see them change as you study, fellowship, and pray together. With orientation and guidance, you can expect to lead the group through various connection methods and studies.
Meals Ministry
The Highlands Meals Ministry serves families & individuals within The Highlands Church & our surrounding community where a delivered meal would provide some relief. We serve to nourish bodies & souls by providing ready-to-eat meals, showing recipients we recognize their need, we care, and we are taking action. We have unlimited volunteer spots available! We ask volunteers to commit to making at least one meal every two months.

Buddy Program
Have a heart for working with children with special needs? Join our buddy program and you will enjoy working one-on-one with a Highlands child that simply needs a little extra help in our Early Childhood or Elementary programs. No prior training is required; we will equip you with all you need to know to serve. Serving commitment is one Sunday a month and arrival 15 minutes prior to service time to allow for prepping and praying.
Early Childhood
The Early Childhood teams exist to unveil God’s love to the children and families of The Highlands. From rocking infants to leading small groups, these volunteers create environments for kids to learn about Jesus and have fun at the same time. (Background check required).
Elementary | Sunday Mornings
Elementary volunteers lead our Explorers (K-4th grade) in relevant, age-appropriate activities and lessons. From songs, to skits, to small groups...these volunteers do a little bit of everything. If you love interacting with kids, this team could be the one for you! (Background check required)
Elementary | Wednesday Nights
Explorers is our Wednesday night programming for K-5th grade! This program is Scripture-based, promotes Bible memorization, and provides exciting games that help kids develop lifelong faith in Christ. We are in need of people who are willing to invest in kids’ lives each Wednesday during the school year.
-
Pathfinders (Junior High)
Pathfinders is our Junior High ministry here at The Highlands! Small groups are divided by grade and gender (6th girls, 6th boys etc). We need leaders for these groups; leaders who are willing to commit to loving and knowing a group of students for 1 year - we meet every Wednesday night throughout the year. You don’t have to be cool, be a Bible expert, or anything else you can think of. You just have to be an adult who is willing to step into the lives of a group of students.
Summit | Senior High
Small groups are an important part of our high school ministry. Volunteers will lead these small groups and connect relationally with our students. During small groups we discuss the lesson of the night, wrestle with questions students may have about the topic, as well as apply these truths to daily life. Volunteers on this team will be at programming every Wednesday.
-
Cafe
Cafe Team members make The Highlands experience incredible for all. They set up, replenish, and serve delicious coffee and tea. Whether brewing coffee or maintaining small talk, these volunteers have smiles on their faces and love making our home a little more inviting. Commitment would be serving at both services about once every 4-6 weeks.
Welcome Team
Our Welcome Team believes that first impressions make a huge impact. If you’ve never met a stranger, this team is for you. Volunteers on our Welcome Team are energetic, talkative, and friendly; this team is made up of individuals who love creating welcoming environments for every guest at The Highlands. They greet visitors and new attenders and help check in families. Members of this team also escort new parents and children to their appropriate rooms. If you get excited about interacting with people and families, then this is the team for you!
Usher
If you're looking for a relatively brief serving role, consider joining the Ushers team. You will hand out programs at the auditorium doors before services begin and help visitors & attenders find seats. Serving commitment would be once per month.
Tech Team
The tech team helps everything run smoothly on a Sunday morning. When serving in this area you can expect to be asked to help run lights, sound, or live stream. You will receive training on how to do these things and can feel comfortable knowing that there will always be at least one more person in the tech booth that can help troubleshoot if any issues arise.
