“Where can I go from your Spirit? Where can I flee from your presence? If I go up to the heavens, you are there; if I make my bed in the depths, you are there. If I rise on the wings of the dawn, if I settle on the far side of the sea, even there your hand will guide me, your right hand will hold me fast.”
Psalm 139:7-10 (NIV)
Pastor Donald C. Wilson and his wife, Erin, have dedicated their lives to serving the Lord. Even before they were married in 2002, God began opening doors of ministry opportunities.
Having each been released from ungodly lives of youth, Don and Erin Wilson have been set apart by God with unique testimonies and strong compassion to reach unsaved souls for Jesus,and to bring the spirit of revival to confirmed Christians.
In his testimony, Pastor Wilson’s says, "On my 25th birthday I had an encounter with the Lord that changed my life. He delivered me from my desire for drugs and alcohol and filled me with His Holy Spirit. Life since that time has not been easy, but my relationship with Jesus keeps me living for Him and I know that I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me" (Phil 4:13).
And Erin says, “Jesus died for all people. Since I accepted his love and sacrifice, I now have a peace that 'passes all understanding" (Phil 4:7). I have joy when I should be angry. I feel love, trust, and confidence even when things don’t make sense. God moved into my heart and changed me, and He will do it for you, too. I am forever grateful to Him. I have learned that I can only find true fulfillment, joy and satisfaction in God’s Word."
Pastor Wilson attended Shenandoah Valley Baptist Seminary and served as 2nd vice moderator of the Shenandoah Valley Baptist Union. He also served as the Associate Pastor of Sylvannah Praise Worship & Healing Center (Formerly Sylvannah Baptist Church), Youth Pastor, and Sunday School Superintendent for six years under the guidance of his father, senior Pastor Lawrence E. Wilson, Jr.
Meanwhile, Erin began working in the dining room of her church, taught Sunday school, led women’s Bible study groups, and began a women's ministry. As Abundant Harvest Christian Center grows, she will continue to work as the Lord leads her into other areas of ministry.
In May of 2007, the Holy Spirit moved them to start Abundant Harvest Christian Center. Since founding AHCC, Pastor Wilson and Erin have been privileged to witness lives changed by the gospel and love of the Lord, Jesus Christ.
God has blessed Pastor Wilson with visionary leadership, and anointed him to preach and teach the Word of God with simplicity and clarity. The enthusiastic nature of his praise and adoration to the Lord reaches out to every person’s inner man, challenging them to live the abundant life promised to us by Christ.
AHCC has been blessed with an effective intercessory prayer team that sees “signs and wonders” on a regular basis. Physical and emotional healings and release from generational curses prove Pastor Wilson to be a righteous man of God, with integrity and passion for excellence in every area of ministry.
Pastor Don and Erin Wilson invite and encourage you to join AHCC for worship. Come and feel the difference that presence of the Lord can make in your life. You will be blessed!

Our Worship Experience
What To Expect when you visit AHCC
We stand, we sing, we lift up our hands, we clap, we shout, we kneel. But Why? Here are some passages that help explain what you can expect to see and hear when you come to AHCC and why we do what we do.
Q. Why do we stand when we sing?
And the Levites, of the sons of the Kohathites, and of the sons of the Korhites, rise to give praise to Jehovah, God of Israel, with a loud voice on high.
II Chronicles 20:19 (YLT)
Ye that stand in the house of the LORD, in the courts of the house of our God. Praise the LORD; for the LORD is good: sing praises unto his name; for it is pleasant.

Q. Why do we clap our hands?
O, CLAP your hands, all you peoples! Shout to God with the voice of triumph and songs of joy!
Psalms 47:1 (Amplified)
Q. Why do we lift our hands?
Lift up your hands to the sanctuary and bless the LORD.
Psalms 134:2 (ASB)

Q. Why do we sing in tounges and in English?
For if I pray in an [unknown] tongue, my spirit [by the Holy Spirit within me] prays, but my mind is unproductive [it bears no fruit and helps nobody].
Then what am I to do? I will pray with my spirit [by the Holy Spirit that is within me], but I will also pray [intelligently] with my mind and understanding; I will sing with my spirit [by the Holy Spirit that is within me], but I will sing [intelligently] with my mind and understanding also.
I Corinthians 14:14-15 (Amplified)
Q. Why do we have this type of worship?

"I love those who love Me, and those who seek Me early and diligently shall find Me." Proverbs 8:17 (Amplified)

A searchable online Bible in more translations than you knew even existed! Search by keyword, topic, or passage.
I once told someone I knew (a Christian) that I read the Bible online. His reply surprised me, "Isn't that cheating?" he asked.
God wants us to seek Him no matter where we are physically, emotionally, or even spiritually. He doesn't care if you read His Word online, in print, or in a different translation than your pastor, wife, or brother. God doesn't care which denomination you worship with, or if you are Republican, Democratic, or Independant.
"But if from there you will seek (inquire for and require as necessity) the Lord your God, you will find Him if you [truly] seek Him with all your heart [and mind] and soul and life. When you are in tribulation and all these things come upon you, in the latter days you will turn to the Lord your God and be obedient to His voice."
Deuteronomy 4:29-30 (Amplified)

God initiated His Kingdom on earth by planting a garden in Eden, a place specially prepared as the habitation for the first human representatives of His Kingdom government on earth. From this hub of abundance and beauty, they would follow their government's mandate to "Be fruitful and multiply", filling the earth with their kind and planting Kingdom "gardens" wherever they went. In this manner, like leaven in bread, they would infuse the territory of Earth with the nation of Heaven.
Paid-N-Ful
We are excited about what God is doing in our lives and we want to share with you in a tangible way. We want to pay it forward with acts of kindness, in hope that the person being blessed may share there testimony. The scripture says: All the believers were one in heart and mind. No one claimed that any of his possessions was his own, but they shared everything they had.
(NIV) Acts 4:32
Did You Know?
God loves us so much that He gave His best, that would be his son Jesus Christ. Because of this act of love, it gave us an opportunity to be a part of His Holy Kingdom. He also gave us the Holy Spirit to dwell inside us to help us live a life pleasing to our Heavenly Father; also to share the love of God with others.
If you don't know this God I'm talking about; Let me share with you how easy it is to come into a relationship with our Heavenly Father.
Just Recite This Prayer
Dear God, I agree with you, I haven't done or said everything right, but I'm asking You to forgive me for my sins. I believe Jesus Christ hung on a cross, died for my sins, and rose in three days. Now I'm asking You to be my Lord and Savior, and I'm asking these things in Jesus name.
If you prayed that prayer and believe it in your heart, you are saved. God Bless You. You need to find yourself a bible believing church to help you to grow in the Word. If you desire to join our church we would love to have you. We ask you to come and share with the Pastor that you excepted Jesus Christ as your Savior . Thank you. We're looking forward to seeing you.
