Why Olathe, Colorado?

First and foremost, this is where God has led and called us to start a new work. Colorado is tied in the U. S. for the 3rd least reach people group. In the town of Olathe, with a population of over 5,000, there are less than 300 people in church on a given Sunday morning. There is a great need for the people to be introduced to the Gospel and for a church that has a vision of reaching the community for Christ. Olathe, Colorado is 71% Anglo and 26% Hispanic. It is famous for its amazing sweet corn and its tremendous athletic programs in the schools. Olathe has a small church building but needs a church planter to come in and restart the church. It is a town that is younger than the national average and needs a team with a passion for reaching families.
Whos going?
The church will consist in the beginning with the Bachman Family and help from some supporting churches in the area such as Grand Mesa Baptist Church in Cedar Edge. The Uncompahgre Baptist Association will be walking along side us during this process. We will also have churches and individuals that will be supporting us in prayer, mission teams, and financial support.
Lead Pastor - Jeff Bachman

Jeff came to know Christ as his Lord and Savior at the age of 16 while attending Alto Frio Baptist Camp in Leakey, Texas. While attending college he felt God leading him into ministry and has served in fulltime ministry for the last 18 years. In 1998 Jeff married his wife Tammy. They have four children. Shannon is 11, Katelyn and Caleb are 9 and Zoe is 3. Jeff has served in many different areas over the last 18 years including director of youth and evangelism, camp director, associational youth director and pastor. While serving in the ministry, Jeff began his seminary career. He has been attending seminary over the last few years and will be graduating in May 2012. Jeff has also been licensed and ordained while serving in the church. Tammy is a licensed teacher and has 12 years teaching experience. She has a passion for reaching people in unique and new ways with her photos, video work, and web designing. The Bachman family is very excited about the new church plant and what God has in store for them in Olathe.
Whos Sending Us?

We are being sent by the Uncompahgre Baptist Association and Grand Mesa Baptist Church in Cedaredge, Colorado. We are currently seeking churches and individuals to partner with us as we reach Olathe, Colorado. We are asking partners to commit to supporting us through: Prayer Mission Teams Financial Support Are we receiving funding from the North American Mission Board? We will be receiving some funding from North American Mission Board (NAMB) but, they do not fully fund church plants, so churches must seek additional funding from partners like you.
The First Year 2012

The plan is to make the move to Olathe, Colorado in December of 2011. We will spend the next few months enlisting people, churches, and mission teams to help over the course of the next year. We are enlisting prayer warriors, financial supporters, and people with a heart to serve. We will begin in Olathe by doing some community outreach events like a free Car Wash, Thanksgiving Meal, Door to Door surveys, and events to get to know the community. Our key will be to get into the community and build some relationships with the people of Olathe. Starting from ground zero is an exciting time, but will also be a time of intense prayer and seeking the Lord for His direction. We will start home-based bible studies as we reach people in the community. Our goal will be to have several groups come in during the summer months to do Backyard Bible Clubs, Vacation Bible School and mission work, as well as many other outreach type events in the community. We plan to have our first worship service on August 12, 2012 and will continue having services on the second Sunday of the month for the next four months. After these four months we plan on going to bi-monthly and then to weekly services.
The Second Year 2013

Our goal is to have a congregation with a desire to reach the town of Olathe with the Gospel. We will be meeting for weekly worship as well as having several small group bible studies around the community. We will continue doing outreach events quarterly as we work to connect with the community. We will be enlisting mission teams to come back during the summer of 2013 to minister using Backyard Bible Clubs, sports camps, and other community events. This will be a great help in spreading the gospel and growing the Kingdom. At this point in the life of the church plant we will not be able to stand alone, but will be striving to be self supportive by the end of 2014. Our goal is to grow a church that understands the calling to be like minded in spreading the gospel and meeting the needs of the community. We will continue reaching people with our weekly worship services and small group bible studies. Our ultimate goal is that each of our ministries will be reaching up, reaching out, and reaching over to bring God the glory as we continue to meet the needs of the people in Olathe, Colorado.
Budget and Financials

In order to sustain the Lead Pastor, Jeff Bachman and his family we will need to raise $13,500 for the remainder of 2011. This will help the Bachman family to make the move to Colorado and become established in the community. This will also help the Bachman family begin the new church plant. Jeff and Tammy will also be recruiting churches and individual sponsors to commit to partner with the Harvest Community Church by giving to the operating budget of the church on a monthly basis. Length of Partnerships Church plants in Colorado take between 3 and 5 years to become self sustaining; due to the extended period, Harvest Community Church will not ask its partners to Commit to long-term. Instead we are asking partners to make a 1-year commitment, honor that Commitment and re-evaluate the partnership annually. Harvests goal is to attain 15 partner churches to give, on average, between $200-$500 per month, as well as, 100 individual sponsors giving $50-$100 per month.
