Greetings!  God gives specific vision for his church, through his servant, to fulfill the mandate of Proclaiming the Gospel.  Our goal is maturing disciples through the study of God’s Word, and evangelizing through relevant witness and sharing our personal faith.  At First Shiloh ministry is holistic, addressing the needs of the whole man, spirit, soul and body.  Our goal is to strengthen the spiritual grip of our families. We do this through intentional life-stage ministry with couples, single adults, older adults, seniors, youth and children. Through our Diaconate Ministry of Family Care we desire to extend our love and concern for our members at every level. 

Our Church’s vision also includes a keen focus on missions and Christian education.  Our arms are open wide to fulfill our Great Commission task.  Local, national and international outreach and ministry partnering is important to us.  We believe the Church represents itself best when its ministry includes help for the marginal, disenfranchised and those impacted by life-threatening or life-altering issues; missions outreach is important.  Also, through ongoing Christian Education our sense of church is heightened as members are skilled and tooled for meaningful and effective ministry.  

Our greatest strength in ministry is our love for God and His people.  First Shiloh is a warm, friendly, loving church.  Pastoral ministry and the care of God’s people is our priority.  I invite you to join us and experience what God is doing with us at our Sunday 9:59 Word Explosion, where the message is meaningful, the music is marvelous and the members are magnificent. 

Yours in Christ,

Pastor R. Neal Siler
