WOMEN'S SILENT RETREAT

Ladies, join us for an overnight retreat at the Jesuit Retreat Center. This is a wonderful way to purposefully get away and spend intimate time with the Lord individually. We will practice silence of the eyes and mouth. (We will be striving to avoid talking, technology, and eating, so that we can have a fuller experience.) Click the image above to register!

BAPTISM SUNDAY

MISSIONARY HIGHLIGHT

GLENN & ERIN NIEDERGALL

The Niedergalls are currently serving with China Outreach Ministries (COM) at Kent State University. COM shares the love and truth of Jesus with Chinese students and scholars at American universities. Through meeting practical needs and building relationships, many come to faith and grow in Christ. These believers then return to China as ambassadors of the Gospel.
