Our History

Over the years since Harvest Church of Southern Illinois was planted in November 2010 God has demonstrated His faithfulness. As we trace the history of Harvest we are consistently reminded about the heart of our mission – to adore Jesus, advance believers, and assist our community. A brief timeline just begins to describe the faithfulness of God during our history. We are grateful for the faithfulness of many men and women who took hold of God’s call and responded in obedience. Here is what we believe to be just the beginning of God’s story at Harvest…
