Religious Groups - Lancaster, OH, US
Our community of faith began back in the Summer of 1998. Joel Seymour, our pastor, along with his wife Kristi had been impressed by God to move to Lancaster and plant a Vineyard church. In May of 1998 they left a successful church plant in NW Ohio and started over again with a handful of people. A few of these folks had prayed for quite a while for a Vineyard style church to be planted in Lancaster. With that initial handful of people we began to worship God, study His word, and live out our faith in this community. By January 1999 we started a second kinship. In June 1999 we started a third kinship and a Sunday night gathering at the Best Western. In March of 2001 we began meeting on Sunday mornings at the Y with just under 100 people. In 2001 Shawn Banker became our associate pastor. Outreach has always been a priority so in 2007 we began using the Agape church building on W. Wheeling for our food pantry, youth group, and recovery groups. In 2009 Ryan Ratliff came on board as our youth and children's pastor. After years of growing at the Y we broke ground in 2007 for the building on Whiley Road and in late May 2009 we moved into our new facility. Today we continue to be transformed by God's love looking for ways to share His love with this broken world.
