Harvest Home's vision is to make a difference in the lives of people through loving acts of kindness. One of the ways this is accomplished is through personal ministry and the distribution of food, clothing and other necessities to those in need.

Our History
Harvest Home was birthed in the summer of 1995 after God clearly directed Danny and Rhonda Calhoun to lay aside their occupations and give themselves to the poor and needy on a fulltime basis. They gathered volunteers to reach out to children, the homeless, widows, single mothers and families in crisis. As a result they developed, organized and led the following outreaches:

Kid's Explosion
This outreach to children in low income neighborhoods began in 1995. This fun-filled "Sidewalk Sunday School" was designed to be both fun and life changing. The children were welcomed with open arms and taught biblical principles through bible stories, skits and other creative teaching methods.

Homeless Outreach
Armed with clothing, blankets and hot meals a large group of volunteers reach out to the homeless in a place called Jurassic Park (now known as Jehovah's Park). Our goal is to share the love of Christ while building a friendship with these precious people.

Food and Clothing Ministry
In 1996, they started a food and clothing ministry, which helped provide groceries and clothing to people in need.

Adopt-a-Family
After seeing the great needs of single parent families, they organized Adopt-A-Family program, which provided emotional, spiritual and financial help to these often forgotten families.

Nursing Home Outreach
In 1997, a team of volunteers adopted forgotten senior citizens at a local nursing home.

Bakery Blessings
Bakery Blessings was birthed to show local law enforcement officers that they were appreciated and not forgotten. Every week a very large basket of homemade goodies and handwritten cards were delivered to the local police station.

In 1998, Danny and Rhonda began teaching and speaking. In 2000, Rhonda wrote her first book, Blessed Are the Poor, which is about the many miracles they encountered as they worked among the poor. This book was soon followed by The Bride, which powerfully reveals the extravagant love that Jesus has for His church. In 2006, she published The Simon Peter trilogy, which paints a vivid picture of the three years of Jesus' ministry on earth. The Great I AM was published in 2007. This book is a record of a series of encounters Rhonda had with God over a period of three months. In 2008 she published her first children's books and she is currently working on another.

On October 17, 2007, the Lord provided the finances needed for them to purchase a 321 acre farm for women and children in need. 2008 brings with it so much more than they ever dreamed possible. The ministry now has 10 people on staff and a large number of volunteers. As a result, countless men, women and children have been helped through the practical deeds of kindness shown to them.

For I was hungry and you gave Me something to eat.
I was thirsty and you gave Me something to drink.
I was a stranger and you invited Me in,
I needed clothes and you clothed me.
I was sick and you looked after me,
I was in prison and you came to visit me.
(Matthew 25: 35-36 NIV)
