LISTEN TO THE NEW EP – RISE UP

by

We just released three new songs this week!

RISE UP – TIM PRICE & HARVEST can be heard on Spotify, Apple, Amazon, Youtube or wherever you listen to music.

The album includes these three songs:

On Your Feet

I Will Rise Up

Rise Up And Shine

Each of these three songs was written for the 2023 Kids Conference and we also sang them during the 2023 summer ministry.

  • Instrumentation, recording, mixing, and mastering – Matt Wilkerson, Troy, IL
  • Vocals, Violin – Ruby Price, Wilmore, KY
  • Vocals – Marrisa Story, MaCalla, AL
  • Vocals, Acoustic – Tim Price, Troy, IL
  • Lyrics, Music – Tim Price (c) 2023

ABOUT “ON YOUR FEET”

This song shares the message that Jesus is present here among us – so we worship. In Harvest fashion, kids love the obvious motions to this song – Clap, Stomp and Shout – that Jesus is the only one who saves!

ABOUT “I WILL RISE UP”

This song was the theme for the Kids Conference with a really simple chorus:

I will rise up, I will follow.

I will rise up, and go with you.

It comes from stories in scripture when Jesus called disciples. Matthew stood up from his tax collection booth and followed Jesus.

Andrew and Peter stood up from their boats and nets and followed Jesus.

Jesus invites us to follow him, and we have a choice to respond — by standing up and going!

ABOUT “RISE UP AND SHINE”

Rise Up And Shine is taken from Isaish 60:1: Arise, shine, for your light has come, and the glory of the LORD rises upon you. In addition to kids singing this song really well, we’ve also used it for other worship settings, too.

HARVEST SUMMER 2023 WRAP UP

by

It’s been a week since we finished up the 28th summer of ministry with Harvest and we give God all the glory!

To start with, we’re grateful for the opportunity to see God at work in the hearts and lives of students all over the state! From altar times at camps, to prayer circles and devotions to testimonies shared by students and leaders! It’s a privilege to serve the Lord in this way and see at least some of the fruit come about immediately.

We served at camps and events during the months of June, July and the first week of August.

It was an incredible summer of serving together with the ongoing team as well as with some short-term team members.

Harvest was out for about 50 days, leading worship approximately 73 times and it was awesome!

The summer team included (from left to right), Dylan Moore, (Bethalto, IL); Marissa Story, (McCalla, AL); Lynnsie Talley (Okawville, IL); Ella Hudspath (Marion, IL); Ruby Price (Troy, IL); and Tim Price.

We led in three different churches on Sunday mornings and spent one two Sunday mornings at ministry event – Epworth Camp and MMDC. The photo above is from July 30, 2023 when we led worship at Mosaic in Highland, IL.

The instrumentation for the group was Tim Price (Guitar and vocals), Ella Hudspath (Guitar and Vocals), Ruby Price (Mandolin, Violin, Vocals and fill in drums and bass for two events), Dylan Moore (Drums), Marissa Story (Bass and Vocals) and Lynnsie Talley (Keyboard, Guitar and Vocals).

Erin VanMiddendorp joined us for the Beulah Family Camp week. The photo above what from a quick recording of “My God Is Faithful” written by Lynnsie. You can view the song here.

Each evening, we led the pre-service worship during the camp.

One cool thing was when ShoutCo! Puppets led during worship at Shiloh UMC and their VBS Closing Sunday.

It was awesome being in Rockbridge, IL for their one day VBS!

If you want to see all the photos from the summer of 2023, it’s best to go to Facebook photo albums on the Harvest page. But this one is a sample of a regular day during the summer. First of all, we most often matched Harvest tees on Wednesdays – no one knows how that groove began. We also led worship – which meant picking songs, sound checking, setting up ipads and pro presenter about three times a day! So, this shot of Ella is rather natural for the summer of 2023.

Ruby getting ready – Marissa is in the back ground and ditto to the info above! Ruby played Mandolin most all summer and sang harmony. But every once in a while, she broke out the violin, played drums for the weekend of fledgling camp and played bass for CDF in Wisconsin.

A definite memory was the weekend where the camp speaker, Pastor Lenny, did a monologue dressed as Jesus and it just so happened to match – exactly! – the Jesus from @ShoutCo! Puppets! It was something else.

Lynnsie Talley played keyboard and sang most all summer, but also jumped up to lead her original song most every week! Listen to the song on Youtube.

The van rides were the best! We had a fun time driving around – so many great conversations, laughter and community! Thun!

It was awesome to lead at Camp Point UMC in Camp Point, IL. We were able to share again the great Gospel message and invitation to Rise Up to follow Jesus.

Thanks to everyone who partnered with Harvest Ministry to purchase a new van! We’re grateful for the ways that God provides and the newer van worked well this summer!

For Harvest Ministry, the van and trailer is more than an asset, it’s one primary tool, along with the sound system and people power, that allows us to GO OUT to sing serve and share as well as RAISE UP the next generation of ministry leaders and Christian disciples.

Jeremiah Bolich Will Be At The 2023 Fall Rally

ABOUT JEREMIAH

After being discharged from the United States Marine Corps in late June of 1995, Jeremiah experienced a life-changing encounter with Jesus at a Billy Graham crusade in southern California. Although not quite clear, he felt a call upon his life and moved back to Indiana in early July where he began attending Harris Chapel Church of the Nazarene.

In early August of that same year, Jeremiah took work remodeling the Sears store at the Muncie, Indiana shopping mall. One evening while on his break and reading his bible, Jeremiah read 1 Corinthians 9:16: “Yet when I preach the Gospel, I cannot boast, for I am compelled to preach. Woe to me if I do not preach the Gospel!”

That moment marked a pivotal and defining call upon his life. After consulting with his pastor, he began making preparations for his ministry training. 

Jeremiah began his ministry education at Olivet Nazarene University in January 1996. While attending Olivet, Jeremiah traveled and held revivals and teen camps primarily in Illinois, Wisconsin, Michigan, and Indiana. After graduating from Olivet in 1999 and receiving his ordination from the Church of the Nazarene, he and his wife entered into full-time itinerant evangelism.

From 1999 through 2013, Jeremiah and Karenda lived on the road, traveling across the United States, preaching the Gospel. In February 2005, they had their first child, Curtis Jeremiah (CJ) Bolich.  Two years later in October 2007, they were blessed with their second child, Ellayna Bolich. The Bolich family continued to travel and minister together until 2013 when they moved into their first home in Watertown, Tennessee.  Since 2013, Jeremiah has continued to travel, dividing his time between the road and his family.  He resides with his wife and children in rural Watertown, Tennessee.
