ABOUT

Our Christian heritage and a little more about our ministry staff! 

who are the disciples of Christ

You can learn more about the wider religious tradition that we're a part of at https://disciples.org/our-identity/. 
We were established here in Newark in 1884; our history of helping establish other congregations in Licking County led to our name "Central" back in 1914, and we moved to our current location at the corner of Mt. Vernon Road & Rugg Avenue in 1950 from downtown.

INTERIM MINISTER REVEREND RON HALL

Reverend Hall and his wife of nearly 50 years live between Highwater and Utica and they have two adult daughters and five grandchildren. He received his BA in Sociology from Mount Union College. He worked various jobs throughout his life, but computers and computer programming has always been a passion of his.
 
Reverend Hall attended Methesco Seminary and received his Master of Divinity degree in 1991. While still in seminary, he began to work as a Student Associate Minister at Highwater Congregational UCC. In 1994 the Senior Minister retired, and Ron became a Licensed Minister. In May 1995 he graduated from Seminary and was ordained.  He continued to serve as Minister at Highwater until 2007.
 
In 2008, Reverend Hall started serving as Minister of Grace Congregational UCC in Columbus. Though the congregation had a declining membership, the church actively led a community-building ministry, attracting other diverse congregations. By the time he retired in 2016, they had five different congregations, teaching the Gospel in 3 different languages, worshiping at their building every weekend.

Reverend Ron Hall has been serving as Minister for Newark Central Christian Church since August 2020.
