Paster Han continues the series on Encounters with Jesus with “A Centurion” during our worship service at 10:00 AM

Grieving Class:  As the holidays are just around the corner, we know how hard they are for those of you who have lost a loved one.  We would like to offer a class for those who are dealing with grief from loss.  The class will be given by Jean Thompson from East Springfield, Ohio.  Please contact the church office for a contact number if interested.

We had a great week of VBS on the Rocky Railway. Thanks to the volunteers who helped to provide the experience for our kids.

You may have been hearing talk and concern about the division in our denomination and where our church may be headed in the future.  Ron Renfroe, President of Good New Magazine, shares six videos about the United Methodist church and the departure of theologically conservative congregations and clergy.

If you have an infant (up to age 2) that you would like to be included in this ceremony of dedication, please contact the church office or Pastor Duk Hee.

We will be holding vision meetings and a retreat early this year. This will be a time of renewal, reflection, brainstorming, and vision casting for our church. Everyone, lay leaders, members, and anyone who is interested in seeing what God has in store for us will be asked to participate. During the meetings, we will first study a book, “Simple Church” written by Thom S. Rainer & Eric Geiger for understanding the factors of vital/growing churches.
