Our vision is to be an eternal family. We seek to live as strong families who are fully devoted followers of Jesus Christ. We are passionate about helping people find their place in God’s family.
Our hope is to bless families for generations through Worship that is a sacrifice of praise, deep relationships, spiritual transformation and meaningful ministry.
MWBC is blessed to welcome Dr. Karen Johnson to our ministry as Interim Pastor. Pastor Karen is well known to the local ABC-Ohio community.
From 2000-2010, she served as the Senior Pastor at Heritage Community Church in Price Hill, during which time she guided two small congregations as they merged into one healthy church that still thrives today. From 2010-2021, she was the Senior Pastor at Dorothy Lane American Baptist Church in Kettering.
Karen received her doctorate in ministry from United Theological Seminary in 2016. Her studies focused on the small church in America and on encouraging those in small churches to continue doing God’s work through new skills, education, and training. In addition, she has been invested in leading in local and regional work. Within ABC-Ohio at various times, she chaired the Ordination Committee, served on the Baptist Foundation, and led the Miami Baptist Association as moderator.
