Harmoy Chapel History
In 1958, The Newby's took charge of the New Harmony Project and in late June, they came to New Harmony to look for a building to have Sunday morning worship.
On September 14, 1958, the first official service was scheduled to be had. Rev. R.A. Ketterman, zone pastor, and Lead pastor of the Evansville Victory Chapel was asked to be in charge of the first service and to install The Newby's.
October 13, 1963, the current location of Harmony Chapel was dedicated. From then on, services have been held every Sunday morning.
What we Believe: Nazarene Denomination
The Church of the Nazarene is the largest denomination in the classical Wesleyan-Holiness tradition. The doctrine that distinguishes the Church of the Nazarene and other Wesleyan denominations from most other Christian denominations is that of entire sanctification. Nazarenes believe that God calls Christians to a life of holy living that is marked by an act of God, cleansing the heart from original sin and filling the individual with love for God and humankind.
What we do: Making Disciples
Christian discipleship is a way of life. It is the process of learning how God would have us live in the world. As we learn to live in obedience to the Word of God, in submission to the disciplines of the faith, and in accountability to one another, we begin to understand the true joy of the disciplined life and the Christian meaning of freedom. Discipleship is not merely human effort, submitting to rules and regulations. It is the means through which the Holy Spirit gradually brings us to maturity in Christ. It is through discipleship that we become people of Christian character. The ultimate goal of discipleship is to be transformed into the likeness of Jesus Christ (2 Corinthians 3:18).
Who we are: A Global Church
The Church of the Nazarene has moved over time from a church with an international presence toward a global community of believers. Grounded in the Wesleyan tradition, Nazarenes understand themselves to be a people who are Christian, holiness, and missional, and they have embraced the mission statement: “To make Christlike disciples in the nations.”
