Visiting any church for the very first time can be a daunting experience. We hope your first visit here will be refreshing, friendly, and enjoyable for your whole family. We do encourage you to arrive about 10 minutes early so you’ll have time to park and give us time to help you and your family to the right location.
After each service, we welcome everyone to stay and enjoy the fellowship with each other. We take a special time after the Sunday morning services to meet with our guests. We invite them to join us at our campus coffee shop, the HUB, to enjoy a free tea or coffee as a thank you for visiting.
If you would like to learn more information about the history, beliefs, and practices of Harvest Baptist Church, consider attending our Foundations Class.

How long are services, and what are they like?
Services generally last about 1 hour and 30 minutes. These services are filled with joyful praise and singing, with a focus on congregational worship. Pastor Gary Walton presents Bible-based messages lasting 30-45 minutes. At the end of the message, Pastor Walton invites anyone who does not have a personal relationship with Jesus to accept Him. There is also time for personal prayer, and counseling is available.
Audio, video, and notes from all of our recent services can be found on our sermons page. And you can always let us know if we can help further.

Visitor parking is available close to the front entrance of the Harvest auditorium.

You will find helpful people there who will gladly answer questions and direct your family to classes or the nursery. Take a look at our campus map for details.
How should I dress?
There is not a dress code at Harvest Baptist Church for members or guests. Our ministry leaders and some of our church family dress in more traditional “Sunday” dress such as a collared shirt and pants; however, we desire that you feel welcome and comfortable on your visit here.
