How it all started...
Harvest was founded on Father's Day, 1988 in Plainview, Texas. What we see as a reality today was at that point a dream of a church full of people young at heart worshipping Jesus. The church began as a Life Group with a few friends, and their families, that met in their home. The pioneering days of Harvest consisted of constant prayer, worship, fellowship and a lot of hard work.
Expanding the vision...
The heart of Harvest has always been to reach people with the message of Jesus Christ and to help them grow in the Lord. Throughout the years, we have trained up leaders and sent them out to plant several other churches across West Texas.
Here in Plainview, we are actively ministering to over 1,500 people each month. However, there are many people in our city who don't know the love of Jesus and are literally "sheep without a shepherd" and will wander aimlessly, filling their life with destructive things until someone reaches them.

Where we are headed...
As we move forward, we will always pursue the mission and vision God has given us. You can learn more about our vision and mission here. As we continually make disciples who make Jesus' way known, we intend to equip people to plant churches across this region as we continue to follow the leadership of the Holy Spirit to advance the Kingdom of God in West Texas and beyond.
