Old Church in Ohio to Close Down on Nov. 20; Presbyterian Church Membership Is Down to 40

The Christian Broadcast Network website reports today (October 13, 2011) that an Ohio church -- more than 150 years old -- will soon close down because its congregation has dwindled.

The last service at Central Presbyterian Church in downtown Columbus is planned for November 20, 2011.

Church leadership council member Linda Wood said the church has only about 40 members, making it difficult to pay its bills.

The congregation was founded in 1839, and the church was dedicated in 1860.
