The best stories are true.
A "Faith Story" is the spiritual autobiography of a Highland Park member who tells their personal story of coming to faith in Christ Jesus and following Him as Lord of life. Highland Park Church members and regular attenders are invited to tell their story and we often share them during our week-end Worship Services and here on the web. New "Faith Stories" are added continually, so check back often.
