being
a
church in action
This past fall, Harvester took a look at God's design and purpose for the church. Our goal is to continue to be a Church in Action long after the series has ended.
Below we have some opportunities for service. We hope you will get involved in serving ... here at HCC or out in the community.
Each of you should look not only to your own interests, but also to the interests of others. Philippians 2:4
