deacons

The Board of Deacons meets the  first Tuesday of every month at 6:30 p.m.

As Deacons of the First Presbyterian Church of Highland and emissaries of Christ, it is our purpose to be in contact with and be a friend to all in our church family and all who enter our doors.

The deacons are responsible to:

• Be in contact with members to show God's love and compassion through deeds and words.
• Ensure confidentiality in matters of health and spiritual importance relayed to the Pastor, if so desired, by the member.
• Serve Communion in worship three times per year and as needed for the homebound.
• Represent FPCH at visitations and funerals and to arrange funeral luncheons at the reguest of the family or Pastor.

Gladys' Table is a ministry that serves meals for the community on the last Saturday of each month from 12 - 1 pm.     Gladys' Table expanded in March to Sack Lunch Saturday meals where sack lunches are served curbside EVERY Saturday from 12 - 1 pm.    All are welcome!!

Purpose: Gladys’ Table was initiated to provide fellowship and a meal for all members of our community. We also deliver to home bound congregation members and friends healthy and nutritious meals. Gladys’ Table is sustained by committed and compassionate volunteers including outside organizations and  by generous contributions of donors.  

Our mission is modest: to nurture the hearts, minds, and bodies to all who come through our doors with a free meal and welcoming fellowship. We  encourage volunteers from FPCH members, friends, and outside organizations to be THE HEART, HANDS, AND FEET OF JESUS by cooking and serving at this event.
