Rev. Jeremy Mann has accepted a call as pastor from St. John’s UCC, Bluffton, effective March 1, 2022. He will be the shared pastor for Emmanuel UCC and St. John’s UCC, both of Bluffton, Ohio.
The announcement from Northwest Ohio Association UCC, Tiffin, made official what the two churches have been working on for several months, thus renewing a shared ministry that existed for decades prior to 1961, when each congregation decided to employ its own pastor.
