According to Proverbs 18:1, a person who isolates themselves “rages against wisdom.” As individuals and churches, we need to be in healthy relationships with others in order to work together, stay accountable, and share resources. Harvest Alliance is a family of churches and ministries birthed in revival and committed to pursuing revival. We are a “Word & Spirit” relational and apostolic family of local churches and ministries. This means that we put the highest value on being based on God’s Word equally with being led by God’s Spirit.
Our vision as a global network is to:
Proclaim Jesus Christ in the power of the Holy Spirit with signs, wonders, and miracles
Demonstrate the Father’s love in word and deed
Strengthen leaders to grow healthy churches and ministries
Facilitate church multiplying strategies and efforts with our member churches and ministries
Our core values are summed up in our F.I.R.E. acronym:
Father’s love revealed through the Lord Jesus Christ
Intimacy, presence, and hearing God’s voice as taught in Scripture
Restoration of the body, heart, and soul through physical, emotional, and spiritual healing
Extending the kingdom of God through the equipping, anointing, and empowering of the Holy Spirit
Harvest Alliance was born to carry forward this vision and these values to the next generation and further worldwide. We are deeply grateful for the shared history of revival many of us have, but are now called to sharpen our focus and press forward for what God has in store. Harvest Alliance launched in early 2020, just prior to the onset of the pandemic. Of course the pandemic delayed many of the events we had hoped to begin with, but despite the incredible obstacles, we have steadily grown.
We currently have 65 churches and ministries in nine nations. We are a “distributed network,” meaning we intentionally do not have a central hub or single location as the base. Rather we are a true alliance of churches and ministries that form cores by region or nation. Currently we have established core teams in England, Canada, and the USA. We also have an international core team to provide leadership globally, made up of Rick Oldland (UK), Rick D’Orazio (Canada), and Cameron Wright (USA). The core team for the USA includes Scott & Stephanie Jones (S.C.), Jim & Tondi Curtis (Alabama), and Cameron & Kathie Wright (right here in Kalamazoo).
I’m writing this just prior to traveling to our first in-person gathering of leaders in the UK, Oct. 27-29. Our upcoming Revival Weekend with the Joneses at New Day will be a regional H.A. event as we invite those from other H.A. churches in our region to join us. Additionally, we are planning a leaders’ retreat early next year and a conference later next year. Please keep Harvest Alliance in your prayers, as this is an important aspect for what God is doing in and through New Day.
