June 21, 2026, was one memorable morning! What could be better than joining with hundreds of others, each on our lawn chairs, gathering for a baptism service down by the creek?

In May 2026, Rosenort Evangelical Church (REMC) was pleased to welcome Sam and Karenna Pauls of Blumenort to our church leadership team. Sam will be taking on the role of associate pastor of discipleship. We look forward to seeing how they enhance our church with their unique giftings.

It has been said, “If your church wasn’t there would anyone notice? Would anyone care?” When EFC was built on its current location in the late seventies, a lot of the surrounding area was open field. Today we would say that God has brought the mission field to us.
