A Message from our Pastor, Rev. Dr. Ken Krimmel
Welcome to Oak Hill United Methodist Church in Oak Hill, West Virginia. OHUMC has a vision of being a “Christ-filled and Christ-led spiritual community of faith where everyone is welcome and all people are loved, valued and respected.” Our church is located at 250 Main Street, Oak Hill, West Virginia, and reaches across seventeen counties through a live broadcast of our Sunday morning worship service. Our community also includes those who worship with us by way of livestreaming us on the web at WZTS.TV. Our mission is a shared mission with The United Methodist Church around the world – “To make disciples of Jesus Christ for the transformation of the world.”
To carry out our mission we offer traditional worship on Sunday mornings at eleven o’clock in our beautiful sanctuary and Dinner Church on Wednesday evenings at four-thirty at the Lewis Christian Community Center. We have a prayer team that meets at the church on Sunday mornings at nine-thirty and Sunday School classes for children, youth and adults at ten o’clock. In addition, we offer a “Young Disciples” class for children who are in kindergarten through second grade, and we have an Archery Center Shot Ministry for youth who are in third grade through high school. The focus of our Center Shot Ministry is to teach our youth “To make Christ the target of their lives.” Each year, the church youth put on a Christmas play to tell the glorious story of the birth of our Savior Jesus Christ, and each summer the church sponsors a very popular Vacation Bible School Sports Camp with over a hundred children and youth participating.
OHUMC has a first-rate preschool for four-year-old students called Sonbeams. It is a half-day preschool program under the direction of a highly trained and enthusiastic director and teacher. We invite you to call the church office for information about registering your child for a spot in our preschool for next year.
OHUMC is blessed with a very professional and courteous staff who will greet and welcome you with a friendly smile. As part of our professional staff we have a highly talented choir director and accompanist who lead our equally talented chancel choir and hand bell choir. Whether you worship with us in our beautiful sanctuary or at home in your living room, you will be blessed by the music in our services. Often times, we have soloists who add to the beauty of our worship.
OHUMC is also very mission-minded and participates in the local ministerial association’s food pantry and backpack ministries, serving hundreds of people in need every month. Additionally, we serve our neighbors through our OHUMC Housing Repair Ministry, helping dozens of people each summer with home repairs that they might not otherwise be able to afford to have done on their homes.
So come, be a part of the ministry of Oak Hill United Methodist Church where you will be welcomed, loved, valued and respected, and where you will find opportunities to worship God and serve your neighbor near or far away. We look forward to seeing you, getting to know you, and walking together on life’s journey of faith and fellowship as a disciple of Jesus Christ.
