From the desk of Reverend Patrick Hunt
"A new era in the life and history of Heritage Congregational
Church has begun with my call to serve as the
new pastor. The congregation has wholeheartedly placed their
trust in me as
a leader and, as God is my strength and shield, I
shall do all that I can to prove myself worthy of that trust."
Our Minister, Reverend Patrick F. Hunt
Rev. Hunt began his ministry in Chicago as a member of
the Chicago Team Ministry, which served the Mennonite Church in Chicago.
His ministry continued in Davenport, Iowa with the Mennonite Church and
subsequently with the Moody radio station WDLM and with Youth for Christ.
Patrick and his family then moved to Cleveland, Ohio in 1979 where his
ministry continued with the Greater Cleveland Youth For Christ, working both
in the inter-city and in the suburbs. While serving in that capacity,
Patrick also served as the Associate Pastor of the People's Community Church
of Berea, Ohio from 1980 until 2007. After leaving youth of Christ in
1992, Pat went on to become the athletic director of Berea High School in
Ohio. He was in that position until his call was confirmed to be the
pastor of Heritage Congregational Church where he was installed in March,
2007
Patrick has been married to Linda for 37 years. They have 3 children

Following God's Will has been a satisfying adventure with many hills and
valleys.
It is good to know that you are in the center of God's Will.
