Although they regularly welcome the community into their place of worship, this time, The Highlands Church members are taking worship to the community. Instead of confining its vacation Bible school program within the church, The Highlands will be hosting "The Backyard Expedition: Takin’ VBS to the Streets" at the J.A. Walters Family YMCA, 2455 Howard Road in Gainesville. The free camp will meet from 6:30-8:30 p.m. Tuesday through Thursday.
