We are so excited to finally have a date to gather as women in the church. Please join us for a brunch on Saturday, February 15th, 2025 10:30 – 12:30. We will gather, eat, play some games, hear a short devotion, spend time in fellowship and end our time singing a hymn or two. It is not necessary to RSVP, but if you want to let Women’s Ministry know, feel free to email: womensministry@harvestpca.com. Please do not worry about bringing anything – just attend and share your time. If you do not have a resource for childcare, please reach out to Stephanie Seifert by email @ stephs@zoominternet by 2/01/2025. Looking forward to our time together – Women’s Ministry Committee
Women’s Tuesday Morning Study begins again on January 7 from 9:30-11:00 AM, studying the book “Blessed: Experiencing the Promise of the Book of Revelation” by Nancy Guthrie. The cost is $10 for the book and study guide. We will pre-order the books to pass out with the study guides at the first meeting. Please sign up here or at the Women’s Ministry bulletin board at HPC by December 30th to reserve your book!
Blessed: Experiencing the Promise of the Book of Revelation Over 12 chapters, Blessed covers the full text of the book of Revelation, exploring its call to patient endurance as God’s sovereign plans for judgment and salvation are worked out in the world. This book shows that Revelation is less about when Jesus will return and more about who we are to be, what we are to do, and what we can expect to endure as we wait for Jesus to return to establish his kingdom in the new creation.
With a friendly and engaging tone, Blessed takes the fear, intimidation, and confusion away from studying Revelation, providing a solid and accessible resource that we can use to study this important yet often avoided book.
Women’s Evening Bible Study will resume Tuesday, January 14th. We will meet at Harvest from 6:30 – 8:00 PM, using the video/book study, “Ephesians: A Study of Faith and Practice.”
“In this 7-session study, Bible teachers, authors, and friends Jackie Hill Perry, Jasmine Holmes, and Melissa Kruger walk through the book of Ephesians, examining the invaluable truths Paul’s letter holds for us today. Along the way, they’ll help us understand the riches of our inheritance as daughters of our heavenly Father, as well as what it means to walk in a manner worthy of our calling.”
Please email womensministry@harvestpca.com if you are interested in having a $15 book ordered for you. (Books can also be ordered after today if needed.)
All women are invited! Please share this invitation with friends. We are looking forward to studying God’s Word together.
3Bs – Band of Brothers with Bibles – is bringing men together to study God’s Word and help each other grow in our faith.

Email mensministry@harvestpca.com for more information.

The clothing donation shed, located behind the church building, is designed to give community members a uniquely clean, convenient, and well-cared-for option for their used clothing donations.
St. Pauly Textile Inc., the company that has provided the shed, partners with businesses and various organizations to distribute donated items both here in the U.S. and worldwide, where they’re ultimately re-worn by people who need them.
Harvest Presbyterian Church receives funding for donated clothing, and additionally has the option to use donations to serve community needs.
With over 1,400 clothing drop-off sheds in place, St. Pauly Textile Inc. collects over 90,000 pounds of clothing every day and estimates that this clothing ends up in 44 different countries (including the U.S.) yearly.

The company was founded in 1996 and is an A+ rated member of the Better Business Bureau.
