My name is Greg Pollak and I am the lead pastor at High Pointe Church. Maybe you are asking yourself...Why are we planting a church in Altoona? Many reasons but primarily because God has led me to share the Gospel with people and there are lots of people in Altoona. Let me share a portion of my story. I grew up going to church and the traditions taught each Sunday morning and for 26 years I believed as long as I was a good person I would go to heaven. The problem with that is, the Bible doesn't teach that good works will get you to heaven (John 6:28-29). There is more to my story but by studying the bible I saw that God desires a personal relationship with me through His Son Jesus Christ. On November 2, 2001 I placed my trust in Jesus to save me from my sins, not trusting in good works. (Ephesians 2:8-9).

Maybe you have grown up going to church each Sunday with no real desire for God or maybe just out of touch with God's purpose in your life. We are planting High Pointe Church to share with you the joy of knowing God personally, not just the religious duty. We want to show the community of Altoona the love of God. So you can see why we are so excited to be a part of the community of Altoona.

Our first service will be at Willowbrook Elementary March 25th, 2012, @ 10am. For directions, click here.
