What is Harvester Like?
The idea of going to "Church" can be a bit scary if you've never been before, or haven't been there for awhile. Or even if you're just coming to a new place with new people.
We know, because we've all felt it too.
Harvester is full of all kinds of folks, from many backgrounds, with lots of different life experiences. Together we worship, pray, share life's ups and downs, serve and celebrate God's grace in Jesus Christ. We know we aren't perfect, but we also know that God loves us anyway - and in return we try to be faithful.
Coming to Join us for Worship?
Wear what feels comfortable for you - you'll see sport coats and ties, blue jeans and shorts. (It's hot down here in Florida!)
We have comfy padded chairs, a variety of music, and a wonderful blend of traditional and modern.
Children are welcomed and encouraged to join in worship - they are "the church" as much as the adults are! Children and youth are welcome in the sanctuary during service, but we have some pretty cool Worship and education sessions tailored especially for their ages that they may want to try instead.

10:00 Service
On 5th Sundays (Approx.4 times a year) Harvester holds a combined service which celebrates the unity of our congregation and allows all of the Harvester family to join together in a single hour of Worship.
Potluck / cookout
5th Sundays at Harvester are also a treat because we get to do one of our favorite things : Eat!
Depending on the expected weather, 5th Sundays will either be a potluck or a cookout. Sign up sheets will be posted in the hallway starting 1 month before each celebration.
Even if you haven't signed up to bring food, please come on... We always have enough to spare!!
