2026 Highlands Missions Festival
Imagine seeing the world through Jesus' eyes. In the gospels, Jesus shares what he sees when He looks at the multitudes. For our 2026 Missions Festival, we're asking, "How Far Can You See?" We invite you to join us in the challenge of seeing people across the world through Christ's perspective. Our Sunday messages will explore this important question for Jesus' followers over the centuries. Some of our missionary couples will join us to share about their work in distant places. Children will also learn from well-known missionary biographies, exploring what those heroes of the faith saw. Come and see what can happen when we open our eyes!
Our host Missionaries will be:
(SPEAKER) Nate and Nikki Bonham - (Rionegro, Colombia)
Trey & Kiki Adams - (Bangkok, Thailand)
Brent Kooi - (Sydney, Australia)
Bibek Guidey - (Nepal)
Clarke and Khrystya Norton - (Ukraine)
Tim and Bev Hart - (Bahamas)
