In a world filled with messages, telling us what is right, what is wrong, and even questioning whether there is a right or wrong, where do you turn for answers? And more importantly, where can you find the right answers? Jesus said, “I am the way and the truth and the life” (John 14:6) and then he proved it by being the only person in history to raise himself from the dead. The answers to all of life’s difficult questions can be found in God’s love letter to humanity, the Bible. Let’s take a journey of discovery together and explore God’s roadmap to navigate this complex and confusing adventure called life.

Many of them have been in The Harbor for four years and that is a lot of learning God's Word and character, spiritual growth, and fellowship to celebrate!

Angels and shepherds and…talking sheep? Oh, my! 

People everywhere are making the journey to the place of their birth, in compliance with Caesar’s decree that everyone should register for the census. This results in the little town of Bethlehem overflowing with people arriving from out of town. Nathaniel, a lovable but scatter-brained, late-for-work shepherd, bumps into two of those travelers, Joanna and Simone, as he rushes to take his shift at watching the flock. The other shepherds (his sisters Miriam and Abigail), along with Judah, are waiting for Nathaniel—late once again—to arrive. Thus begins a story that is All About That Baby, with some shepherds, angels, “out-of-towners”…and singing, talking sheep to guide us along the way! 

​It's a party!

Just for you 3rd and 4th Graders!

Come hang out with your friends and leaders!
