Ministry Description |
St. John's UCC: We are a welcoming church family with a variety of backgrounds. We respect our traditions and our past while we embrace the future. We believe that the pilgrimage of faith is both an individual and a communal experience and that the growth of each is interrelated and dependent upon the other. Our church building is the original stone church located in a picturesque rural setting with the Nerstrand Big Woods State Park as a backdrop. Our church family comes from the surrounding communities, farms, and greater distances as many extended families value their membership in this special community of faith. The gifts and talents of our membership are many; from music, to quilting, to cooking/baking, to leading Christian education. A strong work ethic, and financial support is visible in our daily activities. We are searching for a full-time settled pastor to become part of this faith community which reaches beyond the walls of St. John’s. Our prayer is for God’s help in bringing us someone to guide us, pray for and with us, and walk with us on our faith journey. Nerstrand UMC: We, at Nerstrand UMC, have a strong missional impulse both locally (our free thrift shop) and globally (Kissey Eye Clinic).Our current identity is as a faithful family church that is aging in place. Our goal is to develop a more relevant ministry footprint in Nerstrand and the surrounding area ,as there are many unchurched households in our parish. |
