REACHING Beyond The Walls- Monthly Mercy Spotlight:
For the month of August, please be in prayer for The Center for Pregnancy Choices:
Center for Pregnancy Choices Metro- CPC Metro is a non-profit organization that provides support and resources to women facing unplanned pregnancies. They focus on empowering women to choose life through prevention, intervention, and extension efforts. This includes offering free services like pregnancy testing, ultrasounds, counseling, and practical assistance. They also provide educational resources, support groups, and post-abortion recovery programs. Their mission is to protect the most vulnerable in our community and meet women exactly where they are with generosity and gentleness, not judgement.
What can you do? From helping to organize our office space to volunteering with our support groups, there is so much you can do as we work together to build a culture of abundant life and make abortion unthinkable through prevention, intervention, and extension! What might seem like a small thing to you, is a big deal to our ministry and goes a long way in the effort to empower the choice for life.

VBS at Canton Kids – A Wonderful Success!
We’re excited to share that the Canton Kids VBS, held July 22–24, was a great success!
Approximately 40 children attended daily throughout the three-day VBS. We’re especially grateful for the 25+ volunteers from Highlands who made it all possible. The kids enjoyed a variety of activities, from indoor games and a brand-new volleyball net to the popular marshmallow dodgeball! They sang songs about trusting Jesus, memorized Scripture with motions, and heard the gospel each day through engaging Bible stories led by our Highlands volunteers.
Crafts like Good News bracelets and tin can lanterns reinforced the lessons in a fun and meaningful way. And thanks to our volunteers, every child went home with a supper sack filled with healthy treats.
A heartfelt thank you to Andy & Terry Sensing, all the faithful volunteers, and the Highlands women who provided sandwiches, hot dogs, cookies, and other homemade goodies. We’re so thankful for how God worked through this year’s VBS! See all the photos of their week HERE.
Kid’s Club in Canton
The Kid’s Club in Canton, MS meets every Tuesday during the school year from 4- 5pm. They meet with kids ages 5-12 years of age and share the gospel message through music, crafts, and a Bible lesson every week. They meet in a large building behind Pleasant Green Church of Christ Holiness and are able to reach kids from the Joe Pritchard Home and the surrounding neighborhood. One of our beloved Highlands’ members, Lacy Madden had a vision for this outreach ministry 11 years ago and God has continued to bless and grow this work in Canton. We enjoy partnering with Pleasant Green Church and Pastor Tony Parker.
