How it all started...
At an April 2, 1919 meeting, the Mitchell Church of the Nazarene was organized under the guidance of W.H. Tullis, District Superintendent. On April 6th, the day of the dedication, 36 charter members were received.
Since then, the Mitchell Church has been in 4 locations and a growing a vibrant part of the Mitchell community. In 2000 the church changed its name from First Church of the Nazarene to Harvest Community Church of the Nazarene or better known today as Harvest Community.
Harvest has made an impact in Mitchell and the surrounding 40 miles for over 100 years and is still growing and making a difference for God's Kingdom.
