John Yoder

Elder, Administrative Pastor

John Yoder was licensed to the Ministry in November 2002 and was ordained in June of 2003. John  has a great love for God's Word and is convinced that as Christ followers grow in  knowledge and love for the Holy Bible, the Church will be strengthened and grow in grace and the power of the Holy Spirit.

John has worked in a variety of ministry settings ranging from the pastorate to  parachurch organizations and has even done some volunteering as a prison Chaplain. In all of these settings, John has witnessed the power of the Word of God to change hearts and minds.

"There are few things that thrill my heart as much as seeing a man or woman take up the Word of God and read."

In his spare time John enjoys spending time with his family, reading and having a good discussion. He and his wife Karen live in Sugarcreek. They have 3 adult children.
