History
Founding Pastor Dan Dornbirer was raised in Crawford County and graduated from Wynford High School in 1985. He served in the field of public education for 30 years, retiring in July 2021. In 2009 he was called to the ministry and enrolled in Gulf Coast Bible Institute, Fort Walton Beach, Florida, graduating in 2012. On October 2014 he began the work of planting a church in Nevada, Ohio. In May 2016 the church moved to its present location at 4402 State Route 19, 3 miles north of Bucyrus. In August 2021, Pastor Dornbirer was diagnosed with cancer. For most of this battle, by God's grace, he continued to preach, teach, and remain active in soul winning. It was our earnest prayer that God would bring healing, but on April 20, 2023, the Lord called him to Heaven. His example of steadfastness continues to be an example to us.
