Higher Ground Ministries is a full gospel ministry committed to lifting up the name of Jesus, meeting specific needs and winning the lost through Spirit-led outreaches and the training of outreach ministers.
The vision of Higher Ground Ministries is to call, train, equip, empower and release outreach ministers to the glory of God. We are committed to identifying and activating a wide variety of ministry gifts for the express purpose of winning the lost to Christ.
