Vision For The Harvest
...Behold, I say to
you, lift up your eyes and look at the fields!
For they are already white for harvest.
John 4:35
In 1996, God gave us a vision
to build a strong local church that will be a
revival carrier to the city of Penang. The vision
began to unfold on the 1st of Jan 1997 when Harvest
Christian Centre, made up of 14 youths, gathered
in an obscure place in the middle of the city.
The church started to meet in
a rented pre-war house at 68 Lorong Selamat. The
church grew and the house could no longer accommodate
the people. We met at a conference hall in Agora
Hotel for the next year. Finally, God led us to
the premises that we are currently meeting in.
We initially occupied the third floor but soon
found that we needed more space as the children
church grew. We then rented the second floor of
the same building making it into our sanctuary
and the third floor, our church office and children
church.
Most of us are working adults:
young at heart and in looks! We are basically
a bunch of very interesting and fun people. Like
any other person, we are continually pressured
by many things in this world. However, many of
us have learnt and are still learning to cope
and overcome our circumstances with God's help.
We may be young but that does not stop us from
growing in Him. We pray that as we pledge our
hearts and lives anew to Him, He is going to grant
us favour in whatever we do this year!
Motto
Loving God wholeheartedly
and loving people fervently.
Mission Statement
A church with a strong vision
for the harvest, where every member is committed
to the Great Commandment to fulfill the Great
Commission.
