This Saturday is our major outreach event of the year. Please plan to be there this Saturday to help! We need everyone to get involved. Some of our people come early to set up (8am) if you can help then, please everyone be there by 10am so that we can pray and make sure we are ready to open up.
This coming Sunday we will celebrate as we consider our Luau. We will also have a picnic at the Pandrea's home following service. Come and celebrate with us, consider what the Lord has done!

Good morning! I hope that you are well, on Sunday I will be back in the pulpit after a few months learning how to be a mommy. I am so excited to be back with you!
On Sunday I will be preaching about outreach and evangelism. As we move into the final weeks before our annual Luau we need to be prepared for all of the people we are going to come into contact with. What is our job as the people of God?
Please also plan to stay after church on Sunday so that we can finalize details about the Luau! We need everyone's help to make this event a success for the people of Lordstown!

Good morning, we are in the midst of our series about Biblical hero's. We all have people in the Bible that we relate to more. What Biblical character is a hero or an example for you? Which Biblical person do you relate to the most? Our preachers will be sharing with you about a Biblical character who has shaped their life!

This week is February...wait, February already!? My goodness how time flies!
God is doing something new...the Bible tells us this. We have heard about becoming a New Creation and the New Covenant, this week we we will hear about the New Heaven and the New Earth. Read Revelation 21:1-8 in preparation for Sunday's sermon.
This Sunday is Super Bowl Sunday, support your favorite team in the Sunday morning service. I know they lost, but I'll still be wearing my 49ers jersey! Sunday evening we will meet at the Pandrea's for a fun night of football and food!
You are loved!

Hi! It's cold and snowy but today I am thankful for the space heater that lives under my desk! I hope that you are finding a way to stay warm.
On Sunday I preached about becoming a New Creation...this week I will preach about the New Covenant - when Jesus was in the upper room with the disciples he spoke of the New Covenant, but what is it? What does it mean? Come Sunday as I preach about the New Covenant in Jesus' blood. Read 1 Corinthians 11:23-34 in preparation. We will also take the Lord's Supper together.
Remember THIS Wednesday at 7pm is our Annual Meeting, please come!

Greetings! I hope that this finds you well as we move towards the last few weeks of 2013!
This coming Sunday we will continue with the gifts of Christmas by discussing Hope! Hope (along with joy, peace and love) is a gift of the advent season as we await the telling of the coming of the Christ Child. Advent is a time of expectation and waiting - an exciting time of year when we celebrate the gift of Emmanuel - God with us. Join us Sunday as we celebrate once again.
Plan to stay after church on Sunday as we discuss our Next Steps. We have a wonderful piece of land, but what now!? How do we move on from here?
I am praying for each one of you,

This past Sunday we talked about Stewardship as Time Management. Does God care what we do with our time? The answer is yes! Time is a gift and we need to use it for God's purposes.
This Sunday we will conclude our Stewardship series by talking about Money and Assets. As we have been discussing from Psalm 24:1, everything we have is God's. We are called to manage it well and be good stewards of the gifts we have been given. We have so much trouble being good stewards of our money and stuff! But it is not out of duty that we give, it comes from our thankfulness from the generosity of God, who has blessed us so richly. Come as we discuss it.
On Sunday evening we will worship together with churches from all over Lordstown. It will be a good time of fellowship! Join us at 7pm and stay after for refreshments.

Greetings, happy fall! I hope that you are enjoying this delightful weather.
This fall we are zeroing in on the man who is Jesus. Jesus is our reason for existing as a church, as a body...and we need to know him. If we don't know Jesus we can't love him, and if we don't' love him we won't serve him.
This Sunday, I will preach from Matthew 18:21-35 about forgiveness. Do you allow God to forgive you? How are you at forgiving others? What is the purpose of forgiveness? Read this scripture from Luke and if you'd like to read more check out Luke 7:36-50 as well.
Keep in mind that we will have a community meeting immediately following church this week to discuss our Next Step process, the loan process and a few others things. Please plan to stay.
Blessings,
Pastor Shannon

This week, Brett and I are on vacation, but we will be back Sunday and are looking forward to an exciting day! This coming Sunday we will finalize Luau details and also we will vote on our new property! Are you ready to step forward into God's plan for our church? I know I am, and I am so excited to be taking this journey with you!
On August 4th, I am preaching from Matthew 9 and 10. I am going to be talking about the call of Jesus on the lives of the disciples. We will discuss the instructions that he gave them and we will learn about the process of outreach. Come as we prepare for our Luau, the biggest outreach event of our year. It's coming soon, on Saturday August 10th! Are you ready to meet with the people?
I love you and I am praying for you while I am gone,

Hello! I hope that you are keeping cool in this weather, it's warm but beautiful! Brett and I will be leaving at the end of the week for vacation. Elder Ken Evans is on call in case of an emergency.
On Sunday we have a special treat! Missionary Dan Kihm will be with us. For the last 8 years, Dan has been a senior Pastor in Anderson, IN. He and his wife Christy are leaving soon as missionaries to the Netherlands. He will share first about his coming ministry in the Netherlands and he will also preach about external discipleship, following the same series that we have been in the last few weeks. I hope you will come and hear from this man of God!
This Saturday Berlin Center Camp Meeting starts! There are a lot of great opportunities for children, youth and adults! Check it out here: Berlin Center Camp Meeting.

Hello! I hope this finds you all well, it's finally (officially according to the calendar) summer! I'm so excited for the things we have planned this summer, I hope you'll get involved.
This coming Sunday I will finish preaching from our series THIS OR THAT: Allowing God to Transform. I will conclude the series with the difference between Allowing life to happen and Choosing to live purposefully. Are we in charge of our own lives? Yes, we choose to let life pass or make choices...what would God have for us in this?
This week Brett and I are in Anderson, IN like every June. However, this year instead of a regular North American Convention, the Church of God is putting on a Global Gathering! So far it's been an exciting time and there are a lot of ways for you to be involved:
1) You can go to the Church of God website and get information: CHOG website (You can watch the services there too!)
2) You can come Sunday night (June 23) and experience a worship service with a live feed from Anderson at 7:30pm at our church.
3) You can keep up with this blog through the week, I will post about the experience and what I'm learning!
Blessings to you,
Pastor Shannon

If you can't tell by your allergies the flowers are blooming! Spring is here in full force and how beautiful is has been so far!
This week we start a new study...a study that will move us from worldly ideals to Christian ideals. From how we function in our humanness to how God can help us function in holy ways. These next several weeks we will focus on transitioning from THIS to THAT. On May 19th we will start with transitioning from Independent Contractors to Covenant Community. What does this mean? How does God impact this change? Read Jeremiah 31:31-33 in preparation and come and find out!
This Sunday we also have a community meeting following church. We will discuss the 2013 Luau, we will hear an update from the Next Step Team and we will take a vote on a resolution to borrow for the land! Come and discuss with us.
Blessings,
Pastor Shannon

Good morning! I hope that you are doing well this week.
This past few weeks we have been searching for
messages from God in all parts of life. I have used secular songs as foundation for this time. This week I am using the song "Signs" by Five Man electric Band.
We all wear signs that the world sees, what signs does Harvest Point have up? Do they keep people from from us? Do they draw people to us? What are we telling the world about God and about Harvest Point Church with how we act, live and speak?
This week we have our outreach event at the Apple Cider Festival - I hope that you can come and help in this fun event!

On Sunday we will have a special time of celebration and testimony. It will not be like a normal service and there will not be a normal sermon. Come ready to talk about what the Lord has done and is doing!
Please be in prayer this week for the Luau, the people giving their time to serve at the Luau, and the people that will come to receive our love.

Good morning! I hope you are enjoying this sunny Monday morning. I apologize for not posting last week. The sermon for July 15th was from Romans 12:1-2. I preached about Next Step Stewardship: Holistic Stewardship. Stewardship isn't just about our time, talents or tithe...stewardship is about everything we have, everything we are. I encouraged the congregation "do not withhold anything from God." You can check it on here on our website.
This week I will be concluding our Next Step Stewardship series. This Sunday will be a celebration, it is All-Tithe-Sunday. If all of Harvest Point Church brings their tithe into the storehouse, what can we do for God? I want to challenge you to bring your full tithe in this week, and we will see the potential Harvest Point Church has for kingdom work.
Remember: The Luau is coming soon - how can you help?
