What to expect
Worship at Highland Park UMC
Worship is at the heart of life here at Highland Park United Methodist Church. While our faith journey is deeply personal, coming together to praise God and support one another is essential in sustaining us through life’s joys and challenges. We offer a variety of worship experiences to help everyone connect meaningfully with God.

8:00 a.m. Chapel Service - (Paused for summer)
This early service is held in our cozy chapel and offers the feel of a small, close-knit congregation. Traditional in both music and liturgy, it provides a peaceful, reflective space for worship. Services typically last about 45 minutes.

10:30 a.m. Blended Worship Service (In the chapel for summer)
Our main worship service takes place in the large Worship Center. With stained glass windows, banners, and crosses providing a reverent backdrop, this service blends elements of traditional and contemporary worship. You’ll hear organ music, special selections from our Praise Band, and—outside of summer—a dedicated choir. Dress casually or dress up—come as you are. What matters most is being present.

Communion
We celebrate the Lord’s Supper on the first Sunday of each month at both the 8:00 and 10:30 a.m. services. All are welcome at Christ’s table—no membership required—because this holy gift is for everyone seeking the grace of our Savior.

Bell Choir
Adults and youth alike are invited to join our vibrant Bell Choir, which plays monthly during the 10:30 a.m. service from September through May. Practices are held on Thursday evenings at 6:30 p.m. in the sanctuary. To play in the Bell Choir, reading music is required, but joy and fellowship are guaranteed! Under the faithful direction of Jeannette Filippi, who has led for over 30 years, the group continues to inspire with new selections each season.

Special Needs
Wireless hearing assistance devices are available in the narthex. Please see an usher upon arrival for assistance. Handicap parking is available on all sides of the church
