A Year-End Message from John Freeman

Hi, I’m John Freeman, the founder of Harvest USA. Well, this has certainly been a challenging year for all of us, something we could never imagine. Yet God, in his sovereignty and loving care, has met us in deep and profound ways. He has helped our families, churches, and ministries. I know that’s been true here at Harvest USA.

In spite of COVID-19, our ministry continues, and God has blessed us through the generous support of our faithful ministry partners. Our biblical support groups continue to meet together online, and we’re able to take calls and emails from individuals who need support. Many people have experienced increased temptation to look at pornography and indulge in sexual sin as a result of the isolation and loneliness of the times. Now more than ever, our ministry is needed to come alongside these hurting, weary people. And you’ve made that ministry possible.

God has blessed us and encouraged us in so many ways. We’ve received cheerful notes, emails, and phone calls where people check in on us and ask, “How are you doing? How’s the ministry going?” That has meant so much to us. Some of these notes even said, “Hey, here’s an extra $75 or $100 to get you through this hard time.” And that’s been amazing. The Lord has given us just what we need in the moment, and we sought to be good and faithful stewards of your investment in the kingdom work of Harvest USA.

We also want you to know that our search continues for a new president for the ministry. Would you please pray for God’s guidance on this, and especially for our search committee? Pray that the Lord would bring his person, specifically gifted for this unique position. And if you have any questions about this, please feel free to contact us.

Finally, December is the month that you, our ministry friends and partners, often help us in special ways to end the year in a strong financial position, so that ministry can continue to move forward. So I’m asking: would you please pray about and consider a year-end gift this month to help us begin the new year, 2021, in a robust and firm place? Our year-end goal this year is $300,000 by December 31st.

Thank you so very much. We couldn’t be here offering the gospel of hope, forgiveness, and reconciliation in Christ if it weren’t for you. May you and your families know a special measure of the peace and joy that is Jesus this Christmas season.
