Highlands College + their impact on the Birmingham community

Before we get to their impact on the Birmingham community, first let me fill you in on who Highlands College is. Highlands College is a biblical higher education institution that focuses on four core components: academic instruction, ministry training, character formation and spiritual growth.

Through The Outreach Practicum at Highlands College, students are trained and equipped with a number of practical skills. Some include:

  • Learning to deliver pastoral care in several outreach settings and scenarios including correctional ministry, disaster response, street ministry, anti-trafficking, addiction & recovery ministry and inner-city families. 
  • Learning to develop and implement community outreach initiatives.
  • Learning to nurture the hurting through specialized pastoral care.
  • Learning to lead and value team members and celebrate the skills they each bring.

Since 2011, Highlands College has trained students who have served 51 different ministries and nonprofits across the state of Alabama. But that’s not all they’re doing. Here are two ways they are impacting the Birmingham community:

Door-to-Door Outreach

For communities around the Greater Birmingham Area, Highlands College students serve with Church of the Highlands’ Dream Center to deliver food to families in need. Every Saturday, there are an average of 15-20 deliveries in the Bessemer, Center Point, Gate City, Woodlawn and surrounding communities.

Prayer Walks

Before COVID-19, students from Highlands College would travel to different areas in Birmingham and host a prayer walk so they could get to know some of the people in surrounding communities and provide encouragement for them.

Here are some other things HC students impact communities around Birmingham:

  • Mentoring middle school and high school-aged youth.
  • Participating in weekly community outreach projects.
  • Leading and serving at all Church of the Highlands locations in the Birmingham area.
