With the leadership of the Rev. Dr. Nancy Jo Dederer and the dedication of its members, Circleville Presbyterian Church in Circleville, Ohio, shows that love is more than a word — it’s action, hope, and faith in practice.
In this video, you’ll see how members of Circleville Presbyterian Church use their own resources to change lives: building a brand-new home for a single mother, providing shelter for men who need a safe place to stay and serving hot meals to neighbors in need.
This church doesn’t ask whether you’re a member — members simply welcome you like family. In Circleville, the city may be small, but the heart of this church is pure gold.
