Come as you are. Our church family varies in how we dress.
From jeans to suits, we hope you’ll join us in a worship.
“If we clothe ourselves with humility, then no matter how we dress, we will honor and reflect Christ.”

The re-mapping of the four new districts of the East Ohio Conference was announced September 27 and an invitation was extended that day to submit potential names of the new districts, which were designated A, B, C, and D in the release. Thank you for your suggestions. After prayerful consideration and discussion with Cabinet, the names of the new districts are: West Plains (A), South Forest (B), Central Valley (C), and Northern Waters (D).
