Thornville United Methodist Church
Monday, March 01, 2021
Pastor Pastor Jeremy ShankI grew up in the First Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) in my Hometown
of Shelby, Ohio. After high school I followed a friend across town to the
Church of the Nazarene. I began school at Mt. Vernon Nazarene University
in 1993 and took my first and only Nazarene congregation in 1997.
I met my wife in 1999. She was raised United Methodist and so the inevitable
happened. After a few years of praying and contemplating I became a
United Methodist in 2003. After basically starting the processes of
becoming a pastor all over again, I finally got my Local Pastors License
in June of 2006. I began the Course of Study for Local Pastors in Jan 2007 and
graduated from the COS in the fall of 2014. In July 2012 I was given an amazing opportunity to come to Thornville. I have entered into my eighth year with the Thornville church.
I have a wonderful wife, Melissa, and 2 great kids, Gabriella and Caleb.
I have two of the best in-laws (outlaws) you could ask for.
