WHO WE ARE
Founded in 1994, Harvest Baptist Church has been active in the Hooksett community for over 25 years, helping those in need and sharing the good news of Jesus. Here, you will find a church family who is welcoming and caring. We love God, His Word, and our community.

Holly does a little bit of everything here at Harvest - taking care of the books, working in the audio-visual booth, teaching a Bible study, and hosting one of our small groups. She's a huge blessing to our church family and also serves on the Board of Directors for the Baptist Foundation of New England.
Wilson Thomas
Elder & Buildings & Grounds Deacon
Wilson serves as our other elder here at Harvest and SERVE is the operative word. In addition to the "spiritual" duties of leading, praying, and teaching, you can also regularly find Wilson mowing the lawn, shoveling the snow, fixing a toilet, and living out the servant's heart that Jesus taught. Wilson is married to his beautiful bride, Cathy, recently retired from CMC hospital.
Kim Robertson
Worship Deacon
Kim has been serving as our part-time Worship Director for several years. Formerly our drummer, Kim has moved to vocals and keyboard while also handling all the planning, practices, and numerous details of worship leading.
Kim is a mother of eight and proud gramma of two. She loves music and, more importantly, worshipping our great King, Jesus.
Charlie Hendren
Prayer & Care Deacon
Charlie is one of the first faces you'll see when you come in the doors on Sunday (along with Wilson) and a friendlier face will be hard to find. Charlie loves people and serves through extended prayer and care for our little church family. He also serves as a chaplain for the New England branch of Disaster Relief and is frequently deployed to help those in crisis up and down the eastern seaboard.
