In February 2005, Pastor Ivan and Pastor Tina embarked on a significant journey

that would shape the future of New Harvest Christian Center and their family.

Relocating to Battle Creek, Michigan, they brought with them a vision of

community, faith, and transformation. This move marked the beginning of a new

chapter for the church, characterized by a commitment to spiritual growth and

outreach.

​

Initially, the church began its humble beginnings at Heritage Towers with just eight

members. Despite the small size, the foundation was laid for a welcoming and

nurturing environment. In July 2005, the church moved into the Orchard Park

location, allowing it to expand significantly and serve over 40 families. This growth

reflected the dedication and passion that Pastor Ivan and Pastor Tina instilled in

their congregation.

​

By March 2014, the church took another significant step by relocating to the

downtown area, further solidifying its presence in the community. Throughout

these transitions, New Harvest Church became known for its vibrant youth

programming and worship-filled experiences, attracting diverse congregants and

fostering a deep sense of belonging. The commitment of Pastor Ivan and Pastor

Tina to both spiritual growth and community outreach has made New Harvest

Church a dynamic hub for faith and connection in Battle Creek.
