“A Call to Authentic Faith and Love”
New Year’s Message from Pastor Martin & Cassandra:
“A Call to Authentic Faith and Love”
Happy New Year! As we step into 2025, we are filled with anticipation and excitement for the new things God is going to do in and through us as a church. Reflecting on the past year, we are reminded of God’s faithfulness in every season. He has brought us through challenges, strengthened our faith, and continued to show us His unwavering love and grace.
A Call to Deeper Commitment
We are inviting you to join us in taking your faith to a deeper level. For some, this means renewing your commitment to intimacy with Christ. For others, it means stepping out of complacency and into the fullness of what God has for you.
• To the weary: Let this be the year you find rest and renewal in the arms of a Savior who loves you deeply.
• To the wayward: We want you to know that no matter how far you’ve wandered, God is calling you home, and so are we.
• To our guests and seekers: Harvest is a place where you are welcome just as you are. Here, you’ll find people who are real, who don’t pretend to have it all together, but who are pursuing a real God with real faith.
Living Out Our Mission
In 2025, we commit to growing in:
1. Authenticity in our relationships – Loving each other without judgment and walking together through life’s highs and lows.
2. Boldness in our faith – Trusting God fully and stepping into His plans with courage.
3. Outreach to our community – Extending the love of Christ beyond our walls to impact the lives of those around us.
This is not just a vision—it’s a calling. A calling to be a church that reflects Jesus to a world in desperate need of hope and love.
A Year of God’s New Thing
As Isaiah 43:18-19 reminds us:
“Forget the former things; do not dwell on the past. See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it? I am making a way in the wilderness and streams in the wasteland.”
We believe God is doing something new at Harvest. Let’s be people who perceive it, embrace it, and walk in obedience together.
A Final Encouragement
We love you, Harvest Church, and we are honored to serve alongside you as we pursue God’s will together. Let’s make 2025 a year of transformation, not just within our church but within each of our lives. Let’s be a light to our community—a people who are known by our love for God and for one another.
“Let’s be Real People with Real Faith who Love God and Love People”!
With love and blessings,
Pastor Martin & Cassandra
