Charlene Winston-Puryear, 72, of Newark Ohio, died peacefully on April 18, 2016 in Richmond, Virginia while visiting her sister. She was a graduate with High Honors from Central Ohio Technical College. She was a staff member with ABC Ohio where she worked for 20 years before retiring. She was a deaconess at Shiloh Baptist church where she was a member for over fifty years. She served on a variety of ministries but she loved working on the Esther J Noble Scholarship program and singing in the choir. She was a loving wife and an amazingly devoted mother. Her passion in life was taking care of others. Cards of condolences may be sent to the ABC Ohio office where we will make certain the family receives them.

The Mohican Baptist Association of Ohio welcomed Dr. Ernest H. Jones, our brand new Executive Minister for the American Baptist Churches of Ohio for their Spring Rally. Dr. Jones preached from Jeremiah 29:11 on "Partnership in a Hope Filled Future." 

 

The Pastors of the Mohican Baptist Association of Ohio that were present for the 2016 Spring Rally included Bonnie Wythe, Tim Mohon, Ernest H. Jones, Dennis Schultz, Jill Haught and Jane Gibbons at Brandon Baptist Church.
