“For I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me, I was naked and you clothed me, I was sick and you visited me, I was in prison and you came to me.” Matthew 25:35-36
At Harrison Square, we believe that the Church is called beyond its walls to embody the transformative hope of the gospel to all people. We believe that the best way to live out this high call in a place like Lewis County comes through our common mission of “Feeding people. Body. Mind. Spirit.”
We encourage everyone to join one of our missional communities. If you are interested in any of the communities below, please reach out to the contact lead for that group & fill out our connect card HERE.
