A United Methodist Congregation
ABOUT US
We began in the 1800's as two families and their neighbors, gathering together in their homes for a Methodist Class. These families, the Harper's and the Ezard's, along with their neighbors, enjoyed many blessings and many hardships over the years.
​
As their families grew together, they longed for a church of their own. With the support of the community, in 1911 they were able to build the original Chapel and make their dream a reality.
​
Harper Chapel has continued to grow over the years, adding to it's building, as well as to the ministries offered to our local community, and will continue to do so in the future.
OUR VISION
"Intentionally connecting people with Jesus Christ and each other through ministries that are: relational, invitational, transformational and missional."
OUR MISSION
"Making disciples of Jesus Christ for the transformation of the world."
OUR COMMUNITY
