DEVELOPING A BETTER CHURCH @ HARMONY FOR YOU OUR NEIGHBORS!
Harmony Church is currently making updates and renovations to many aspects of the church. You may have noticed recently as you drive-by that trees have been removed around the pavilion area to make it safer for everyone. We have just completed painting the entire exterior of the building and the worship area inside the building. We still have much to do outside including making the surface of the playground area softer and safer for children when playing, landscaping and new signage and lighting. Stay tuned for updates on continued renovations to make our grounds, building and guest services better for you as our neighbors!
MOTHER'S DAY, May 10
This is the day we remember and honor our mothers and pay tribute to all of the women in our lives that we are blessed to know
MAY IS MENTAL HEALTH AWARENESS MONTH
May is National Mental Health Awareness month in America. We at Harmony Church take this seriously as the national crisis it is. We will be talking about it this May, giving books and information away and making people aware of the counseling services we provide for those who need it. The truth is, we all struggle with mental health issues to some extent. If you or someone you know needs help, please reach out to get it. You can contact betterhealth.com, (online counseling/therapy) call 988 (suicide & crisis lifeline), locally you can contact hospitals who provide help or call our counseling service (listed below under professional counseling).

"Jesus is not here; for He has risen"
- Matthew 28:6
How does the resurrection impact our lives today in 2026? It reminds us that God is alive and has overcome death. An alive God can hear our prayers...provide help to us in time of need...forgive us when we make mistakes...resurrect the ashes of our lives into something better...serves to remind us hard times don't last forever...as the deadness of winter turns into the life of spring, so an alive God can turn what is dead in us into life giving us hope and motivation to do things we never thought possible!
