Polka Worship 2025

This year’s Polka Worship, July 27, raised $1808 for the Geauga Hunger Task Force! Special thanks, as always, to the Chardon Polka Band for making this annual event so energetic and fun. Our worship planners put together a wonderful service, in which the Gospel was shared in a thought-provoking skit about The Good Samaritan. (Jake and the band might be able to pick up some acting gigs if this music business doesn’t work out. 😉 )

And it’s safe to say that no one went away hungry from our free picnic!

Summer Fun

Mini Vacation Bible School! Polka Worship! Check out the photos below!

We had another lively group of youngsters come together for “mini Vacation Bible School” (two short days!) this summer. This year the kids learned all about the Beatitudes!

And our 10th annual (WHAT?!) polka worship with the Chardon Polka Band raised $1374 for the job training and employment programs run by The Ox Shoppe in Thompson, Ohio! Photos below! Thank you to EVERYONE who makes this event so special each year – The Chardon Polka Band, friends and fans, and our terrific volunteers!
