Pastor Marion Dalton, along with his wife Stephanie, pastor Bethel Harvest Church in Lexington, Kentucky. Bethel Harvest Church had its first service in February of 1999 in a warehouse that had been renovated and remodeled with many long hours of work. Only 10 short months later, Bethel Harvest Church had grown to over 200 faithful attendees, thus outgrowing that facility. On New Year's Eve of 1999, Bethel Harvest moved into a 400 seat 1.5 million-dollar facility. Since that time God has moved mightily through fresh revelation, and highly anointed services, consistently leaving all attached to the Bethel Harvest vision wondering what God will do next.
In early 2003, we closed on the first phase of our property - 19 acres located on a four lane highway that sees almost 50,000 cars pass by daily. In February 2004, we closed on the sale of our current building, and this past August we celebrated our first service in our new 52,000 square foot facility. The new home of Bethel Harvest Church is a $7.8 million dollar facility that seats over 1,200 people in the sanctuary and will have state of the art facilities for every age group. We are seeing constant growth in maturity of the Bethel family, and we have seen over 300 souls saved through our local ministries in the last 12 months. The vision that God has given Bethel is to build His Kingdom at home, locally, regionally, and internationally, and as we are obedient to fulfill His vision He has been faithful to expand our influence for Him. As one may guess, we are all very excited about what God is doing in our midst as we are, "Building Life. Together". As we step into our promise land, we are making plans to launch new programs in every age group and to increase ministry to our community.
