Former Harvest Time pastor keeps busy with his new Steve Delino Ministries

Steve Delino may be the former Harvest Time Church pastor, but that does not mean he is not preaching and helping others.
Delino was associated with Harvest Time Church for 34 years (10 as the lead pastor). He transitioned after Our Savior’s Church from Lafayette took over the buildings and school of Harvest Time.
Delino and his wife, Shelia, created Steve Delino Ministries, Inc.
The two of them were cooking at the Christian Service Center in Abbeville. They took over the time slot that Harvest Time had at the Christian Service Center.
They cooked white beans and pork steak and served over 100 people on Wednesday.
“That is my calling,” said Delino on why he helps others. “I am an Evangelist. Jesus also fed people as well as spoke to them. Ministry deals with spirit, soul and body. It is the whole person.”
Delino said he could not just walk away from the Christian Service Center when Harvest Time closed. He and his wife met so many great people in Abbeville that he wanted to keep the tradition of feeding others.
“I love connecting with people,” he said. “This gives us a chance to make new and old connections. Make new partnerships.”
Delino is trying to grow Steve Delino Ministries. He is in the works of creating a website, Facebook page, and app for the ministry. He aims to make Vermilion Parish, especially Abbeville, a safer place to raise a family.
“I want Abbeville to be like it was when we were kids,” said Delino, now 60. “There is a lot of work that needs to be done. We need help from other churches, businesses, political figures, and those in education.
“We can not do it alone, but together we can.”
