Benevolence

Overview
The benevolence ministry is a deacon ministry consisting of a fund used to meet financial emergency needs of Harvest Bible Chapel families and single parents. Acts 6:1-6 Needs are identified through the many ministries at Harvest Bible Chapel, applied for through an application process and responded to by benevolence leaders, trained and lead by our benevolence deacons.
