Our Vision

Mission Statement

  • On December 7th, 2025 after a process of discernment for nearly two years, Highland Hills United Church has accepted this Mission Statement.

    Highland Hills is an inclusive and supportive community of faith that follows the ways and teachings of Jesus Christ. 

    We offer worship, education, pastoral care and outreach for all.

    With a belief in God, we strive to include people of all sexual orientations, gender identities, ages, differing abilities, colour, ethnicity, cultural identity, and economic circumstances, participating in all aspects in the life of the church.

    As a community of faith, we publicly declare a commitment to social justice initiatives, care for the earth, and equity for everyone. 

    We will be intentional and explicit in welcoming and providing a safe space for all.

    Also, we continue to be inspired by the historical Mission Statements of our sister churches that were written before the amalgamation process and the disbanding of Maple Lake United Church.

  • Maple Lake United Church

    To connect people to Christ and to each other.

    We affirm our commitment to encourage the growth of a diverse community where all persons are welcome regardless of age, gender, race, ethnic background, sexual orientation, differing abilities, gender identity, economic circumstances and family composition.
