We partner with local organizations and support initiatives that meet real needs in our community. Serving in the Milwaukee area gives us the opportunity to be the hands and feet of Jesus outside the walls of our church.

Sharing God’s love by caring for those who are poor in body, mind and spirit, to see lives transformed through Christ to hope, joy and lasting productivity. This mission is especially urgent in Milwaukee, where 1 in 4 people live in poverty, over 1,000 people go without a place to call home each night, and 35% of children grow up below the poverty line.
Part of our local missions outreach at Harvest is to build a relationship with a local school (Cedar Hills Elementary). There will be multiple ways to get involved through out the year.
We will announce opportunities as they come up.
Care Net is a pregnancy resource center that offers free & confidential care to women who are facing a pregnancy decision. Our care includes a free pregnancy test, ultrasound, options counseling and practical support.

Word of Life is an organization dedicated to evangelization and discipleship of youth in Mexico. They have over 80 full time missionaries and are based on a 40-acre campground just outside the rural town of Bernal, three hours north of Mexico City and 45 minutes east of Querétaro. Harvest sends an annual team to the Word of Life camp in Bernal to encourage and work alongside the Word of Life missionaries.
Harvest partners with Church Project Querétaro located in Juriquilla, just outside of Queretaro. For over 8 years we’ve helped sponsor the education and training of 15 pastoral residents, 6 church planters and we’ve helped plant 5 churches in Mexico, Nicaragua, Peru and the United States. The vision of Church Project Queretaro is to continue to train pastors and plant churches all throughout Latin America and bilingual churches in the United States.
In February of 2015, Harvest was able to partner with the house church movement in South Asia to bring the gospel to unreached villages. Less than 2% of these nationals claim Christianity as a religion. There are approximately 75,000 unreached villages in this region. One new church was planted in a previously unreached village during the February exploratory trip. We continue to partner with the house church movement in reaching villages with the gospel and establishing new local churches. Harvest will do this through annual short term trips. Harvest currently supports the church planting movement in this country and desires to send annual, short-term mission trips. And finally, Harvest also supports a local Hostel for youth that have come to Christ. This support allows the youth a place to live and further their educations.
