The Church at Highland Park

About this church

The Church at Highland Park holds Sunday School at 9:30 a.m. and worship just before 11:00 at 5206 Balcones Drive in Austin; the site’s header lists 10:55, while its worship page rounds the start to 11:00. Worship follows the Christian calendar and a liturgical pattern, with Scripture readings and sermons drawn from the lectionary. That combination suits visitors looking for an ordered service without assuming a narrowly uniform congregation.

Highland Park describes itself as progressive, open-minded, and woman-led, and says everybody matters without exception. Youth meet Sundays at 9:30 in the library. Rather than presenting ministry as a single list, the church organizes participation through service groups responsible for worship, Christian education, missions, administration, outreach, and other parts of congregational life. Its visitor page connects that structure to practical work: welcoming strangers, feeding hungry neighbors, seeking justice, and serving outside the church walls. It also notes a historical Austin contribution—the Capital Area Food Bank was begun by one of Highland Park’s associate pastors. For someone comparing Austin churches, the profile offers several distinctive signals at once: an inclusive public identity, lectionary-based liturgy, a near-11:00 worship time, youth education before worship, and member-led service groups.
