Reaching Beyond The 4 Walls
Our Vision is to utilize our Helping Hands Ministry to feed the needy; provide clothing to the cold, give “toys 2 tots” that would otherwise be without, and help those affected by natural disaster.
Although we are located in Plaquemine, it serves as a church home to members in Baton Rouge, Baker, Prairieville and surrounding areas. We faithfully serve our members that are out-of-state as well with the ultimate goal of having campuses in other countries. Higher Grounds has a vision of providing help extends beyond the church.We house our Helping Hands Ministry that feeds the needy; our ministry provides free clothes to those in need, and toys 2 tots. During natural disasters our ministry lended a helping hand by providing clothes to flood victims, cleaning supplies, water and monetary donations. We strive to help the body of God in any capacity.
