We are very excited that you are taking the next step by attending NEXT STEP. No matter where you are in your walk with Jesus, we are here to partner with you and to help you grow in your relationship with Jesus. 

Class begins promptly at 1pm. A lite lunch is provided, please include the names of everyone you are registering in your family.

We are happy to provide childcare if needed—please be sure you answer the two registration questions—include the names and ages of your children that will need childcare during Next Step. It is important to let us know ahead of time if you need childcare services.

2025 End of Year Giving

Online Giving

As we look back on all God has done in 2025, we are filled with gratitude for the way Jesus has guided and strengthened High Tide Church every step of the way. Your generosity this year has been truly amazing—you are High Tide Church, and every ministry we carry out is only possible because of your faithful giving.

As we prayerfully look ahead to 2026, we invite you to consider an end-of-year gift to help us continue sharing the love of Jesus in our community. All 2025 giving must be received by December 31, 2025, and any checks mailed in should be postmarked no later than December 31 to be counted for this year.

Thank you for the way you love, serve, and give. We are excited to follow Jesus together into all He has planned for HTC.

Christmas Eve Services

2pm, 3:30pm & 5pm

Lottie Moon Christmas Offering

Online giving: December 1-31

In-Person Giving: December 24

As we enter this season of Christmas celebration, we are honored to participate in the Lottie Moon Christmas Offering — a special offering named after Lottie Moon, a faithful missionary who served almost forty years in China (1873–1912). 

The Lottie Moon Christmas Offering exists to enable global missionaries — currently more than 3,500 sent by the International Mission Board (IMB) — to share the gospel, plant churches, and bring hope to people who have never heard.  What makes this offering so special is that 100% of all gifts go directly to missionaries on the field — supporting their daily needs, ministry work, outreach, and care.

We are very grateful for your partnership with us in this ministry. This December we are accepting online giving for Lottie Moon throughout the month, and we will also collect in-person gifts on Christmas Eve — the only offering our church will receive that night. If you prefer to give by cash or check, you may use a regular High Tide Church giving envelope (just mark it “Lottie Moon”).

Your generosity fuels compassion, training, and the spread of the gospel around the world. Thank you for supporting this amazing ministry and making a difference for God’s kingdom.

Register for December 13

Singing has a unique way of uplifting the spirit and spreading joy, especially during the Christmas season. The melodies and lyrics of carols remind us of the love, hope, and joy that the birth of Jesus represents. 

As we venture out into our neighborhoods, we can bring the Light of Jesus to those who may be feeling lonely or down, offering them a moment of joy and warmth through our songs. Each carol we sing can serve as a reminder of the love of Jesus and the spirit of giving that this season embodies.

Imagine the smiles on the faces of those we visit, the laughter shared, and the warmth generated from our harmonious voices. Whether it’s an elderly neighbor, a family struggling during tough times, or anyone in between, our caroling can be a blessing that brightens their day and touches their heart.

So, let’s gather our friends and family and head out into the community. Let’s spread the joy of Christmas, share the love of Jesus, and create unforgettable memories through the gift of song. Together, we can make this season a little brighter for everyone we meet.

It's also a time that you are able to have a one-on-one conversation with an elder or deacon about your salvation. 

There are two parts to the registration.
Step 1: Complete Request Form with includes your contact information.
Step 2: When you submit the form you will be prompted to complete the Attendee Information Section — the information collected is needed to schedule your baptism. After you submit the Attendee Information Form, you will be contacted by Carrie Boyden.
