shouldering kingdom work together

The work of the ministry here at Harvest Church would not be possible without faithful volunteers working for Christ. Each week, hundreds of volunteers help us fulfill our mission of glorifying God and making disciples. We are one body, with many members and a specific responsibility: “As each has received a gift, use it to serve one another.” (1 Peter 4:10) Together we shoulder our ongoing Kingdom responsibilities and become active participants in what God’s doing in and through Harvest.
