We welcome Pastor Jinha Choi, his wife and two daughters to First & Wesley United Methodist Church. He will be preaching for the first time on July 3, 2022.
He was born in South Korea and was called to the ministry in his high school years. He studied theology and ministry at Hyupsung University, a Methodist theological school in South Korea, and graduated with a Bachelor’s and Master’s degree. In the Fall of 2007, he came to the United States and continued his studies at Drew Theological School, a seminary in New Jersey, and graduated with a Master of Divinity degree and Master of Arts degree.
Pastor Choi has extensive experience in minstry with children, youth groups, and young adults. He started his full time pastoral ministry in the United Methodist Church in 2020. He is a Certified Local pastor and is moving from Eastern New York State where he has been the pastor for four United Methodist Churches – Copake, Craryville, Hillsdale, and North Hillsdale UMC in the Catskill-Hudson District.
We look forward to being in ministry with Pastor Choi!
