Meet the minister
A message from Gregg Strawn

 At Circle church of Christ, we recognize that we are all on a spiritual journey, one in which the highest goal is to encounter God. We recognize that this goal is best achieved within a loving community, a community that is willing to share their lives together. This means that we want those attending to not only feel welcomed, we want them to know that they are loved by God and the people of Scio. It also means that we want to be open to each other's joys and pain. Finally, it means that we will be part of an ongoing conversation with each other and with the Scripture.

As a church, we are committed to loving the Lord our God with all our hearts, minds, souls and strength. We are also committed to fulfilling the mission that Jesus Christ has given His church - that of making disciples of all peoples.

Information about me:

I am a husband and the father of two, serving as minister of the Circle church of Christ for over 20 years now.  My wife and partner in life is Pam, who works tirelessly for our Lord.  Our children are Jordon and Marissa. Jordon is married, and currently works in Oklahoma while his wife, Kelly, is finishing her Masters at Oklahoma.   I love hanging around with the excited and motivated Christian servants in our fellowship, sharing the love of God with each other and those outside the church.
