Ravenswood, West Virginia, is a city with approximately 3,800 people on the Great Bend of the Ohio River. Situated 36 miles south of Parkersburg and 49 miles north of Charleston along I-77, Ravenswood is known for its historical charm, industrial success, and river front recreation.
Ravenswood is a city full of church buildings. But it turns out a city full of church buildings can be a city full of churchless people. Jackson County is believed to be 66% unchurched. That’s about 18,000 people in the county and 2,500 in Ravenswood alone. We believe the harvest is plentiful (Matthew 9:37), and God is calling us to labor for glory and joy in the Great Bend region.
We desire to work alongside of existing gospel-preaching churches in Ravenswood to see that 66% decrease as many come to know Christ!
