Whether you have considered visiting Harvestland Ministries Church or have already attended, we want to welcome you and let you know that there is a place for you at Harvestland. We hope this site will answer many of the questions you may have about the church, worship services and beliefs, but please feel free to call the church at (number to come) if you have any other questions at all- we'd love to talk with you.
What can I expect at a worship service?
Our purpose in worship services at Harvestland is to bring glory to God and to study His Word. This is accomplished through the various parts of the service:
SERMON: Through a detailed study of a portion of the Bible, we seek to better understand God's character, plan and purpose. Bibles are available in each pew and the scripture is projected on the front screens for those who may not have one with them.
All Scripture is inspired by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, for training in righteousness. 2 Timothy 3:16
MUSIC: God is praised and worshipped in a contemporary style through both instrumental and vocal music.
O come, let us sing for joy to the LORD,Let us shout joyfully to the rock of our salvation. Psalm 95:1
PRAYER: It is our privilege to bring praise, thanksgiving, confession and requests to God in times of prayer.
Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. Phillipians 4:6
OFFERING: We collect an offering to support the work of our church as well as missions work in our country and around the world. This portion of the service is intended only for those who consider Harvestland their "church home"- guests are not expected to contribute!
Each one must do just as he has purposed in his heart, not grudgingly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver. 2 Corinthians 9:7
What should I wear?
God accepts you as you are and so do we. You will fit in at Harvestland whether you are dressed up or prefer a more casual look. You will see a wide range of styles at our services.
What is available for my children?
Nursery care is provided for children birth through 4 years old. You will be welcomed by a member of our CARE ministry team who will guide your child to the appropriate classroom, where you can provide any special instructions you may have. For safety reasons, we request you personally collect your child from the nursery area.
Children's Church is offered during the worship service for ages 5 through 12yrs. Children will be given age-appropriate worship and Bible-focused activities. Attendance is optional- feel free to keep your children with you for the entire service if you prefer.
