    Overview:
    Global Missions is a response to the Call Jesus Christ has given us, to be His witnesses in all the earth.  The primary focus and priorities that guide the Global Missions Team are centered around the efforts that establish, reproduce and strengthen the local, indigenous church.

    Our Purpose:

    To enable our church body to participate in and be obedient to the command of Jesus to “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, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you…”

     

    Vision Statement:

    Impact Locally—Reach Nationally—Touch Globally

     

    Mission Statement:

    To glorify God through the fulfillment of the Great Commission in the spirit of the Great Commandment, by equipping and launching people to disciple the nations of the world.

     

    Our Values:
    • Prayer - Prayer will be the foundation for all our Missions Effort (Matthew 9:37-38, Acts 13:2)
    • Church Planting - Our focus will be on ministries that plant and assist in strengthening and multiplying churches  (Matthew 16:18)
    • National Worker - Partnering with key national pastors/evangelists/ministry leaders to assist in church planting  (3 John5-8)
    • Discipleship - Developing quality disciples (2 Timothy 2:2, Matthew 28:19-20)
    • People Focus - Seeking God to raise-up and/or equip labourers (Acts 9:15, Romans 10:14-15)
    • Holistic Ministry - Meeting people’s physical needs as we address their spiritual needs  (Matthew 25:34-46)


    Harvest London Missions Program (past & future)

    Our initial missions strategy at Harvest London focused on being a church that mobilized missionaries.  During that phase of ministry we sought after knowledge regarding the philosophy and Biblical basis behind missions, various definitions of church planting, needs of missionaries and our own Harvest DNA – the way God has wired us as a church.

     

    Our conclusion is that our primary missions focus going forward is to be a direct church-planting ministry within the context of the Harvest Bible Chapel Purpose, Four Pillars, and Values. With a strategic partnership with the Harvest Bible Fellowship we are committed to the establishment and support of biblically-based, self-reproducing churches worldwide.

     

    This is not to say that we believe other approaches and methods of missions to be wrong, but rather God has given us as a church a passion for a certain model of church planting.

     

    At Harvest London we sense God has drawn us to start a church in Eastern Europe.  Through our church’s various connections with ministries such as Josiah Venture, and the HBF’s strategy for church planting in new countries such as Czech Republic and Poland we have seen God lead us to this part of the world time and time again. We are praying for the opportunity in the near future to labour alongside a group of believers and start a new Harvest Bible Chapel together, for God’s glory.
