About Us

Our Mission

The mission of Harvest Temple is the same mission Jesus gave his followers: Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the NAME of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.

Our Vision

The vision of Harvest Temple is create a community of authentic believers and to witness a city transformed by the life changing reality of the gospel, as people come to know Jesus as their lord and savior.

What We Believe

REPENTANCE

Ezekiel 18:30-32
Therefore I will judge you, O house of Israel, every one according to his ways, saith the Lord God. Repent, and turn yourselves from all your transgressions; so iniquity shall not be your ruin. Cast away from you all your transgressions, whereby ye have transgressed; and make you a new heart and a new spirit: for why will ye die, O house of Israel? For I have no pleasure in the death of him that dieth, saith the Lord God: wherefore turn yourselves, and live ye.

2 Corinthians 7:10
For godly sorrow worketh repentance to salvation not to be repented of: but the sorrow of the world worketh death.

INFILLING OF THE HOLY GHOST

Acts 2: 1-4
And when the day of Pentecost was fully come, they were all with one accord in one place. And suddenly there came a sound from heaven as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting. And there appeared unto them cloven tongues like as of fire, and it sat upon each of them. And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.

BAPTISM

Acts 4:12
Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.

Romans 6:1-6
What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound? God forbid. How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein? Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death? Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life. For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection: Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin.

LIVING A HOLY LIFE

Leviticus 20:7
Sanctify yourselves therefore, and be ye holy: for I am the Lord your God.

Colossians 1:22
In the body of his flesh through death, to present you holy and unblameable and unreproveable in his sight:

Active Ministries

Bus Ministry

Harvest Temple provides a van for rides to services on Sunday morning and Wednesday night.
Ron and Kathy Price coordinate rides and act as monitors for the Sunday School run. They will pick up children who otherwise might not be able to attend. For all services, the van will pick up individuals who otherwise would have no other way to church, sometimes making multiple runs for one service.
If you have a child you want to send to Sunday School, or if you need a ride yourself, please call Kathy Price at 217-883-2856.

Azusa StreetRiders

The Harvest Temple Chapter of Azusa StreetRiders is led by president Austin Seaton and currently has 5 members. From the Azusa StreetRiders' website: "What sets Azusa StreetRiders apart from every other Christian motorcycle ministry or club in the world?
We are bikers of — the name! And that name is — JESUS!
Across the globe, nearly 700 Christian motorcycle ministries and clubs have been identified, but Azusa StreetRiders stands alone in professing and proclaiming the name of JESUS as the one name that fulfills all the qualifications of Matthew 28:19, the one name in which all believers are to be baptized (see Acts 2:38, Acts 8:16, Acts 10:48, Acts 19:5, etc.), and therefore the only name by which we must be saved — even as the scripture says: “Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to mankind by which we must be saved” (Acts 4:12 New International Version)."

Harvest Temple's began a daughter-work in Beardstown, IL, named Hope Apostolic Church.
