Dr. James MacDonald
In Illinois...
Beginning in September 1988, Harvest Bible Chapel met in a conference room with 18 followers of Jesus Christ who wanted a different kind of church in the Chicago area—a church where Christ would be worshiped in Spirit and in Truth. God led them to call 27-year-old James MacDonald to be their pastor in Rolling Meadows, Illinois.
By God’s hand, Harvest Bible Chapel has grown into a healthy, functioning fellowship of over 12,000 individuals on four Chicagoland campuses. Recently, Harvest Bible Fellowship launched a church planting initiative that has led to growing churches throughout the United States, Canada, and even Romania.
In Jacksonville…
In September of 2007, the people of Point of Grace Church, a new church
in Jacksonville started by Dr. Brett Maragni, embraced the vision of
its Elders to partner with the Harvest Bible Fellowship. Harvest Bible
Chapel of Jacksonville celebrated its Grand Opening on April 13,
2008.
