Shared Ministry Opportunities are offered through the Ohio Moravian Ministries Commission.

New Class Starts TONIGHT

There's a lot of activity happening in our T-County Moravian world this week! Stay tuned for a flurry of posts, but for now, be reminded that a new round of Shared Ministry Opportunities has recently gotten underway. In fact, a new series will launch this evening.

As part of the Monday with the Ministers series, Pastor Darrell Johnson will lead "Joy, Humor and Daily Delight" from 6:30 - 7:45 p.m. at the New Philadelphia Buehler's Restaurant. All are welcomed. There is no fee for this session, although you'll want to bring along a little money to purchase a beverage and/or snack.

Pastor Darrell invites us to "Notice, share, and delight in God's gifts of humor and joy as we look at scripture, cartoons, comics, and the light-hearted moments in our lives." Come for soft drinks, fellowship and holy laughter!

"Joy, Humor and Daily Delight" will  meet on October 2, 9, 16, and 23.

This event is one of the Shared Ministry Opportunities offered through the Ohio Moravian Ministries Commission.

Saturday Car Show & Chicken BBQ

Take a CRUISE IN THE COUNTRY 

and come out for the annual CAR SHOW & CHICKEN BBQ 

at Fry's Valley Moravian Church tomorrow, Saturday, August 19. 

We're located at 594 Fry's Valley Road SW, just a few miles off OH-416 between Gnadenhutten and Tuscarawas. 

We have lots of door prizes, silent auction items, a beautiful setting, delicious food, and, of course, CARS! Shiny and slick, nostalgic and memorable, restored and in-process CARS!

Come to show off your own, or just to appreciate what's on display. 

Either way, all of the fun will be backed by an oldies soundtrack spun by our event DJ.

Registration begins at 1:30 p.m. Chicken Dinners with Homemade Sides & Desserts will be available between 3:00 and 6:00 p.m. (Don't be late! Our legendary chicken often sells out!)

It's Time Again for 2nd Sunday Cinema

On the second Sunday evening of every month, Pastors Chris and Darrell Johnson host a movie-watching group at Schoenbrunn Community Moravian Church. Popcorn is available, of course!

But even better than a good flick and a snack is the opportunity to come together for fellowship, and for conversation about faith and life as sparked by the featured movie.

Our next session will be Sunday evening, August 13, from 6-8:30 p.m. Folding chairs will be set up, but feel free to bring your favorite portable seat.

This monthly event is brought to you through the Ohio Moravian Ministries Commission:  Strengthening our local ministries and engaging in cooperative ministries 

for the upbuilding of the Body of Christ.

The Summer Series: 2nd Sunday Cinema

It's very odd trying to promote a movie-based discussion group when the license agreement allowing us to publicly show popular films also prohibits us from publishing the film titles! Do we let a little publicity challenge like that stand in our way! Of course not! And so we announce to you,as best we can, our summer line-up of movies meant to spark conversations about faith and life and how we both experience and talk about God.

2nd Sunday Cinema meets at Schoenbrunn Moravian Community Church at 6:00 p.m. on, you guessed it, the second Sunday of each month. Depending on the length of the movie and the depth of our discussion, we finish no later than 9:00 p.m., but sometimes earlier. Please use the back parking lot and the door to Fellowship Hall. Our gatherings are geared toward adults and older teens. If you have any questions, please call Rev. Chris Johnson at 484-894-9077.

The Moravian Churches of Tuscarawas County often share in ministry opportunities together. This is one of those efforts! 2nd Sunday Cinema is sponsored by the Ohio Moravian Ministries Commission (OMMC).
