Mercer Bible Fellowship is located in Harrodsburg, Kentucky, USA. The church originated in 1996 as a colonization outreach of the Mount Carmel Bible Fellowship. Ten families were chosen to start the new fellowship, including two deacons, Daniel Coblentz and David Sommers.

The Harrodsburg area provided numerous vocations for members of the congregation, including mini-barn shops, carpentry, a bulk food store, metal and equipment sales, a bakery and farming.

In 2018 the church had 78 members and was a member of the Mennonite Christian Fellowship. The ministerial team included Bishop Ervin Esh, Ministers Mark Peachey and Sam Miller, and Deacon David Sommers.
