What can you expect on a Sunday morning?
You can expect a casual atmosphere, a free cup of coffee or tea, and a bustling lobby full of people of every age and stage of life. During our services, we have modern music, a teaching from the bible, communion, and a chance to receive prayer if you’d like. If you have kids, we have children’s programming available for kids 6 months - 4th grade.
We have a podcast of all our sermons going back years. Take some time to listen to some of our podcasts. We have a number of people on our teaching team so we encourage you to listen to a few.
Every church is a little different - different history, different beliefs, and different ways of doing things. And that’s okay. We love the whole church! Check out our Values & Beliefs page to learn what makes us, us.
We have a staff and board full of people who would love to get to know you. Feel free to check out our staff page and send an email to anyone you’d like. You can also grab us on a Sunday or stop in during the week.
There is a lot going on in the life of our church, too many things to list. Check out our event calendar to see what’s happening in the upcoming weeks.
We believe that everyone gets to play at Harvest. There are many ministries in the life of our church - from fighting food insecurity, to men’s and women’s groups, to video games, and everything in between. Check out our ministries page to learn more about them.
