Shiloh Mennonite Church Exists to Gather, Grow, and Send the Church
Experience community, faith, and purpose as we come together to love God and serve our neighbors. Shiloh Mennonite Church invites you to be part of a welcoming congregation dedicated to Jesus-centered teaching and spiritual growth.





Our Story
Shiloh Mennonite Church was founded in 1971 by a group of believers from United Bethel Church. In 2021, we celebrated 50 years of Shiloh existing to worship and glorify God, and God's faithfulness to the congregation over the years!
In the 1990's a large addition opened room for many more to worship with us. Today our membership is over 300, and reflect a variety of church backgrounds.
Over the years the church has had the vision of launching new gatherings of believers around us. Mechanicsburg Christian Fellowship, Agape Christian Fellowship, and Olentangy Community Fellowship all have founding members who came from Shiloh. We have a continued vision to share the gospel with our neighbors, plant disciple-making churches in unique demographics, and seek to send the good news of Jesus all over the world.
We own Shekinah Christian School, which represents students from 50 different churches participating in the ministry of equipping students through education & discipleship to glorify Christ while impacting their communities.
Our Mission
Shiloh Mennonite Church exists to worship and glorify God by bringing people into fellowship with Jesus Christ and His body, growing them into maturity in Christ and sending them into the world as witnesses of Christ.

Everyone is welcome here. Whether you're a long-time believer or exploring faith for the first time, Shiloh provides an environment where you can grow spiritually and connect with others.
Our Beliefs
We are a Mennonite church rooted in Anabaptist traditions while keeping a contemporary approach to faith. Here are some of our core beliefs:
Who Jesus Is
We believe what the eyewitnesses of Jesus said about him is true, “You are the Christ, the Son of the Living God.” (Matthew 16:16). We also take Jesus at his own words, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.” (John 14:6, ESV). Jesus is the only way to God, the perfect sacrifice for sin, and the risen King over death.
Jesus reigns now over all who believe in Him and give him their first allegiance. The Holy Spirit helps us live in obedience to the teaching of Jesus, freeing us from sin to glorify God. We anticipate the day Jesus will return to finally defeat Satan and death, and make all things new for God’s people. (Revelation 21).
The Meaning and Purpose of Baptism
Maybe you have believed in Jesus for some time but never let others know about it. Baptism is a public act you can take to make known your faith in Jesus. The act of going under the water symbolizes your death to sin and your hope of the resurrection and new life. Baptism celebrates the entrance of your life into God's family, and the purpose of your life to live for Christ.
Mennonite Doctrine
500 years ago a few Christians decided to live faithfully to the New Testament. They decided adults should make the decision to follow Jesus and be baptized. Several who had been baptized as Catholic infants then baptized each other. They were soon called “Anabaptists” (Re-baptizers). They placed a strong emphasis on following the teachings of the New Testament, and living lives of holiness before God. They emphasized the work of the Holy Spirit sanctifying the believers.
A former Catholic Priest and writer by the name of Menno Simons became a spokesperson for the anabaptists. In a time when the world was filled with religious wars and violence, Menno applied Jesus’ words to “put away your sword” as a command for Christians to reject violence. Christians were to be willing to die in love for their enemies instead of killing in self-defense. Their detractors called the group Mennonites and the name stuck.
The Role of The Bible
The Scriptures, both Old Testament and New Testament, are the Word of God, a supernatural revelation from God to mankind, verbally inspired by the Holy Spirit. The entire New Testament is the fulfillment of the Old Testament, and the perfected rule for the Christian church.
Our Worship
Our Sunday gatherings are a beautiful blend of the old and new. Worship includes prayer, hymns, contemporary songs, and teachings from God’s Word. We aim to create a comfortable environment where everyone—from lifelong believers to new guests—feels welcome to connect with God.
Our Affiliations
We are affiliated with Rosedale Network of Churches (RNOC). RNOC is Evangelical in its commitment to God's Word and the necessity of personal Salvation, and Anabaptist in its practice of faithfulness to the teachings of the New Testament.
As a partner with other churches in RNOC, Shiloh finds encouragement in annual Pastors and Conference events. Shiloh’s young people have opportunity for discipleship and preparation as kingdom workers at Rosedale Bible College. Shiloh has an opportunity to reach the lost around the World through Rosedale International.
