Our Karen Ministry

Our church is delighted to welcome the Karen people coming to our community. Many have come here to Marshall for employment, and have seen the importance of finding a place to worship in their new home. Currently, we are providing transportation to our Sunday morning services working with Community Transit. We also offer an English as a Second Language (ESL) Bible Study every Sunday evening at Sunrise Court Apartments, 1310 Birch Street, Apt 106. We are seeking to develop other ways to effectively minister to our friends making a new home in a strange land.

A Bible Class in S’Gaw Karen is offered during the Sunday School hour (around 11 AM).
