Regional Ministries  

The Presbytery of the Highlands - The Presbytery’s purpose is to work for God’s Reign by connecting, governing and supporting its congregations and ministers as they experience God, grow in faithfulness and manifest, in word and deed, the Gospel of Jesus Christ. As the regional governing body for 63 Presbyterian member churches in New Jersey's Morris, Sussex, Warren, and Hunterdon counties, they are one of 22 Presbyteries that make up the Synod of the Northeast of the Presbyterian Church (USA). Membership is comprised of the ministers of the member churches, together with an equal number of elders.

Officers and Staff conduct the business of the Presbytery, and Mission, Ministry, Nurture & Resources, Church Development & Redevelopment, and Youth Ministries programs are carried out by the Program Committees. Newton Presbytery has a number of resources available to member churches, their ministers, and congregants. For example, the Resource Center (located at the office at 390 Route 10 West, Randolph) contains many books, pamphlets, and videos that any Presbytery church member can borrow for up to a month at a time. Volunteer opportunities exist on numerous Presbytery committees. Visit the website at www.newtonpresbytery.org.

FAMILY PROMISE - Two weeks each year, Hilltop Church supports Family Promise of Morris County. Adults and families who are in housing transition are temporarily in local motels. We assist with meals, groceries, gas cards, store gift cards, and transportation.
