A FEW WORDS FROM PASTOR GENE




GREETING MESSAGE

We’re delighted that you’re considering a visit to Harvest Community Church.

Harvest is an inner-city ministry with a deep commitment to God’s Word, God’s people and loving our community in Jesus’ name. We minister to unchurched kids in the city (J-ROCK), provide shelter for homeless men from November to April (Sanctuary), and throw a huge party for our neighbors each year (SonSplash).

At Harvest, you’ll find younger and older folks, new believers and seasoned Christians, families and singles.

The dress even on Sunday mornings is casual (jeans are fine), but our desire to know God and His Word is anything but casual. The worship service at Harvest begins @ 10:00 and moves forward in a flow of praise, prayer and preaching.

We generally finish around 11:30 with lots of folks sticking around for coffee and fellowship.

Call:  (401) 766-1777



WHAT TO EXPECT


General Information

Being an urban ministry comes with its blessings and with its challenges. One of the challenges is parking! We have a few spots on the side of the church for those with small children or who may have a handicap. But parking is available on the street and in a municipal lot and bank parking lot just across the street from the Church.

A mother’s room which offers a full view of the worship service is available for those with babies. The Church also provides a nursery with loving volunteers for very young children who are not ready for Sunday School. For those kids who are old enough, Harvest’s Sunday School ministry provides fun, age-appropriate Bible lessons by a wonderful staff of gifted teachers.

Am I Welcome?

No matter who you are, you’re welcome at Harvest. Are you an honest seeker? A doubter? A committed Christian? A sceptic? Fully convinced of your faith in Jesus? We believe that God’s Word has the answer to every question that may arise within a person’s heart. But, fair warning: Don’t expect to stay the same! God’s Word has a wonderful habit of revolutionizing the lives of those who take its message seriously! There’s an old cliché: God loves us just the way we are, but He loves us too much to let us stay that way. Well, that’s true. It really is. The Christian life is a journey of walking with Jesus down roads of the Spirit. And, as we do, we find that we’re becoming more and more like Him.

Will I be alone?

Our deacons are available to assist you and our four pastors are happy to sit with you to help you work through whatever might be on your heart.

Harvest is a wonderful, loving family of believers who love Jesus and want to live for Him. We’re authentic, caring and serious about following Him in these difficult days.

Is Harvest Right for Me?

Is it the right fit for you? Come a few times and see. Ask God to give you peace as to whether this is where He’d like you to serve.

We’ll do all we can to make sure you know you’re welcome!
