We believe life is better when we Gather. Grow. Go.

Sometimes gathering looks like worship on Sunday. Sometimes it looks like a volleyball in the air and lots of laughter on a Wednesday night. 🏐

Thanks to everyone who came out! We’d love to see some new faces next week.

Today we’re celebrating and thanking God for our pastor. Kevin faithfully serves Harvest Church with a heart to help people Gather to Jesus, Grow as disciples, and Go on mission.

Thank you for preaching God’s Word, loving people well, and leading our church with humility, vision, and compassion.

Join us in wishing Pastor Kevin a very happy birthday in the comments! We pray this next year is filled with God’s blessings, wisdom, strength, and joy.

Happy Birthday, Pastor Kevin! 🎂🎉

If a 10 yr old can explain the gospel this clearly… maybe we all need to hear it again. Jesus didn’t just teach us how to get to God. He became the bridge.

One of the things we've been hearing from many of you is a desire for deeper connection and community at Harvest. We hear that, and we're excited about what God is beginning to build.

This fall, we're planning to launch what we're calling Missional Communities. Think small groups—but with even more purpose. Groups that don't just gather together, but grow together, care for one another, and live on mission together.

Right now, we're looking for people who might be interested in opening their homes and helping create that kind of community.

Tonight at Pastor Kevin & Amy's home is a Missional Community Interest Night. This isn't a commitment to lead a group. It's simply an opportunity to come, hear the vision, ask questions, and learn more about what we're building.

Throughout the summer, Pastor Kevin & Amy would love to invest in and pour into potential leaders and hosts as we prepare for a fall launch.

If you've ever thought, "I'd love to help people connect," or "Maybe God could use my home to build community," we'd encourage you to come.

You can register through Church Center @ https://harvest-church-488272.churchcenter.com/registrations/events

We'd love to have you join us. We're not looking for perfect people or Bible experts. We're looking for people who love Jesus, love people, and are willing to open their lives to others.

Last night was our monthly Harvest Women Cultivate Gathering, and it was so much fun!

We spent the evening painting pots, planting, laughing together, and getting to know one another better. The weather added a little excitement too—we missed getting soaked by the downpour by literally just seconds! 😂 As the rain started falling, we were all laughing as we hurried into the garage to continue the fun.

Moments like these remind us that community doesn’t have to be complicated. Sometimes it’s simply sharing life, stories, and a few laughs with other women.

If you’re looking for a place to connect and build friendships, we’d love to have you join us at a future Harvest Women event. 💛

We’re excited to introduce Doug Eisenschenk, our new Production Ministry Leader, with support from his wife, Angie, who serves alongside him on the team.

Doug leads and supports our Production Team—a group of volunteers who serve behind the scenes each Sunday through sound, slides, setup, and other technical roles. Together, they help create an environment where people can engage in worship and hear God’s Word clearly.

What They Love About Harvest: “Our favorite thing about Harvest is the simplicity of the mission to Gather, Grow, Go and that we actually live it out in our community of Big Lake. Impact Sunday is a great example of that.”

Fun Fact: Doug and Angie love to travel and have visited 37 of the 50 states!

Favorite Bible Verse:
“So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand. For I am the Lord your God who takes hold of your right hand and says to you, ‘Do not fear; I will help you.’” — Isaiah 41:10 & 13

If you’re interested in serving on the production team, email Doug at [email protected]

Harvest Patio Parties Are Coming This Summer!

One of the things we value at Harvest Church is being authentic people living in community with one another. We believe some of the best conversations and connections happen around a table, on a patio, or gathered around a fire pit. This summer, we'll be hosting Harvest Patio Parties—casual gatherings where people can get to know others from Harvest while sharing a meal, dessert, coffee, or simply enjoying time together.

Right now, we're looking for hosts! You don't need a perfect house or a huge backyard. If you have a patio, deck, garage, backyard, or fire pit and would be willing to host one gathering this summer, we'd love to hear from you. Let us know if you're interested in hosting and what dates and times might work best for you.

Email Pastor Kevin at [email protected]

We are so thankful for NorthRidge Fellowship. As our sending church, they have supported Harvest Church through prayer, encouragement, volunteers, friendship, and financial partnership. Their investment has helped us launch, grow, and continue reaching people with the love and hope of Jesus.

Many people see what God is doing at Harvest today, but part of that story is a church that faithfully said "yes" to helping send us.

Thank you, NorthRidge, for believing in us, supporting us, and partnering with us in God's work. We are grateful beyond words.
