CONTEXT | LONDON, OH
London, Ohio is a city to watch. Strategically located just 25 miles southwest of Columbus, London is an emerging bedroom community for Columbus with an expanding economy. Small enough to retain a small-town feel, but boasting a population large enough to classify as a city, London offers a great opportunity for a church to take Jesus to the heart of Madison County. This opportunity is rooted in demographic and community considerations and will also involve leaders from our network from the ground up. As Movement Church expands, it’s heart is to provide a more localized church for the several people currently residing in London.
