We are on a rescue mission for Jesus Christ and the ministry of the local church is essential to fulfilling this great mission! We believe that everyone God connects to Harvest Life Church is not here by happenstance. God has given you gifts, talents and abilities that He wants to work through to reach others and make an impact!
See the list of ministries (below) that you can serve in at Harvest Life Church. Attend our next Volunteer Training Day so we can help get you ready to serve in ministry and equip you with the training and information to get started right away.
HOW DO I GET STARTED?
