Memorial Church welcomes new pastor BY ADRIAN ESCHENWALD
M
emorial Church, 101 S. Hess St., Quarr yville, recently welcomed Dave Coryell as its new lead pastor. As the church undergoes multiple large changes, Coryell said he looks forward to connecting with congregation members and assisting with its youth ministry program in his role. Cor yell has been actively involved in various youth ministries for several years, traveling to more than 50 countries to train pastors, church leaders and youth workers over the course of his career. Coryell is a graduate of Messiah University, and he began serving as a youth pastor while he earned a Master of Divinity from Evangelical Seminar y. After helping establish a youth ministry program at a United Methodist Church in Elizabethtown, Coryell got involved with Arrow Leadership Program to offer Christian ministry training.
In 2007, Coryell became the executive director of Christian Endeavor, an organization that provides training resources, educational materials and other forms of support for churches, pastors and youth groups. In 2016, Coryell transitioned to a role serving as the general secretary for the global ministry, and he continues to travel four to five times a year for Christian Endeavor training programs. Coryell first heard about the open position at Memor ial Church after he was contacted by the church’s district superintendent. The congregation was experiencing difficulty finding a pastor who suited its theology, as it is currently in the process of disaffiliating from the United Methodist Church. Coryell discussed the opportunity with his wife, and he decided to meet members of the church to see if he would be a good fit. Upon visiting Memorial Church, Coryell discovered his former student See New pastor pg 3 Dave Coryell gives a presentation at a Christian youth training event in Kassel, Germany.
