We are happy to announce Rev. Chuck Meathrell as the new pastor at Pataskala Seventh Day Baptist Church. The church has been without a pastor for 7 months following the retirement of Pastor Robert Van Horn in October. Chuck and his wife and their family of 3 boys will be moving to Ohio from South Carolina in mid May.
Rev. Meathrell received his MDiv from Columbia International University in Columbia, SC and was ordained by his previous church, Jacob’s Well Church also in Columbia, SC. Since the COVID-19 pandemic, he has been leading the church through virtual worship services from their home (check Sermons & Worship on this website or Youtube). We will begin regular services in person at the church located at 12161 Broad Street SW in Pataskala, OH when we can safely meet together.
WELCOME TO OHIO & OUR CHURCH MEATHRELLS!
