A Place For All To Serve and Be Served
PRAY
At Harvest we take serious the call to establish “a house of prayer.” We are known for all that we do in our churches. We are known as soulwinning, bus, music, youth, school, college, nursing home and prison ministries, but Isaiah 56:7 said, “...for my house shall be called a house of prayer for all people.”
The majority of the church has taken on the challenge to pray in their homes for every nation every month and for every family at Harvest every month.
Hundreds of people assemble monthly in nearly 100 scheduled prayer meetings to intercede to God for miracles to take place in people’s lives. You can be a part of the most important ministry at Harvest Baptist Church by attending and participating in the Intercessory Prayer Ministry at Harvest.
If you have a prayer request and would want your request to be lifted up by the intercessory prayer ministry at Harvest you can submit it here.
MISSIONS
Our missions program is supported by those of the church with a burden to see this world come to Christ. Not only does Harvest send thousands of dollars per month to the foreign field for the use of evangelizing the world, but we also send missionaries to the world right out of the church. Harvest operates its own missions board that handles the support and ministry to its own missionaries. At present, we send support to over 40 missionaries worldwide!
Harvest Baptist Printing and Publications Ministry:
Psalm 68:11, “The Lord gave the Word, great was the company of those that published it.” In 1996 Harvest Baptist Printing and Publications began by printing and assembling a container of 200,000 John and Romans and 2 million Gospel tracts for the country of India. Since then we’ve printed over 17,000,000 pieces of scripture and materials in seven different languages for the countries of India, Mexico, Canada, Albania, Croatia, Philippians, Zambia, as well as throughout the United States of America.
Training, counseling, discipleship and other spiritual books and pamphlets are produced by the thousands through this encouraging ministry. The ministry does not charge foreign missionaries for printed materials. The printing is done as God supplies the paper and money to ship the containers. Literally millions have been saved and reached with the Gospel through this ministry.
JASON and RORY DOVER
Missionaries to Peru and Unreached People Groups:
Since 2008, they spent ten years in the Peruvian jungle church planting and training nationals , and taking many deep jungle expeditions to reach the most remote people where no missionary has gone before. Now based out of Harvest and continuing to work in Peru as well as many other countries around the world, Jason has been in well over a dozen countries doing anything and everything such as Evangelistic Exploit Expeditions to the un-contacted and un-evangelized, Pioneer Projects to research closed countries, teaching in Bible institutes, preaching in National Pastor's conferences, and strengthening the underground church in a safe house meeting. When in the States, they travel preaching missions conferences, recruiting laborers, and helping to train future generations of missionaries in venues such as the Ignite Conference, and the Beyond Borders extreme missions boot camp. They specialize in the most difficult areas of the world where the last groups of people are waiting to hear the Gospel and "creative access" countries that are closed to traditional missions methods.
JORDAN and ABBY WEBB
Missionaries to St. Lucia:
Jordan and Abby Webb both surrendered to missions as children. Jordan received a degree in Missions from Harvest Baptist Bible College in 2014, the same year that Abby graduated with a degree in Education. They were married a month later. In 2016, following the counsel of their pastor, the Webbs went on a missions trip to St. Lucia. God used this trip to burden their hearts for the Caribbean. They spent another year preparing. Jordan earned his private pilot’s license and gained experience coaching volleyball at their local community college, while Abby taught in the Christian school. They have been in St. Lucia since August of 2019. Their main goal is to partner with national pastors to reach and teach the people of the Caribbean.
DIVINE GRACE CARES:
Divine Grace Cares is a non-profit organization that is seeking to help all around the world. We are currently working in two countries: Haiti and Malawi, Africa. Our ministry, Divine Grace Cares, is currently supporting an orphanage in Haiti that has 40 children with the desire to continue to grow and reach more children. Divine Grace Cares is currently supporting 32 of these children on a monthly basis for $62 each, and is looking for more sponsors for the other children and for the future children. Divine Grace Cares, is in the beginning stages of working with a preschool in Malawi, Afirca. Where we will be helping build a Pre-school and a feeding center, along with digging a well to provide water to those in the community. The mission of Divine Grace Cares is to partner with those who are already on the ground, seeking to help with the needs of the people in their area. We want to provide the funds to be able to help with the needs of the people their communities. To learn more visit divinegraecares.com,
MISSIONS TRIPS
Annual Missions Trips to Foreign Countries:

Now the Lord is allowing us to send out teams of short-term missionaries to help churches and pastors get the Gospel spread and to be able to help in many different building projects and orphanges.
