Ministry Description |
"Heartland Shared Ministries consists of three parishes including Salem Lutheran Church (ELCA) - Superior, Church of the Plains (Presbyterian) - Edgar, and United Church of Christ - Clay Center". Salem Lutheran is located on a state highway in a rural setting. Our members reside in either of two small towns nearby, Nelson, and Superior, NE, or in the countryside. The soci-economic status depends greatly on the agricultural economy. While the population has declined, the area supports two school systems. Primary employment is in agricultural related businesses, the hospital, nursing home and assisted living facilities, the school systems, and private business. The lifestyle reflects the age of the residents. Sporting activities are well attended throughout the year. Two golf courses are available. A large lake is located nearby for irrigation and recreational purposes. Church of the Plains is quaintly located on the main intersection of our quiet little town of Edgar, NE. Our church draws membership from a variety of surrounding communities including two distinct school systems. While the majority of members work in agriculture, many are also healthcare workers, truly embracing the culture of the heartland. Edgar is home to several successful family-owned businesses that have stood the test of time and an extended community focused on growth and engagement. The United Church of Christ is located in Clay Center, Nebraska. The 750-person population of Clay Center makes up the largely agriculture-based community. However, a thriving and active surrounding population contribute greatly to the success of the town. Primary employment is in agricultural related businesses, healthcare facilities, the addition, the US Meat and Animal Research Center, four miles west of Clay Center offers many employment opportunities. Of three public schools and one Christian" school in Clay County, many Clay Center children attend Sandy Creek Public Schools 6 miles south of town. |
