Omega Baptist Church purchases UTS propertyDAYTON, Ohio - The Revs. Daryl Ward and Vanessa Ward, co-pastors of Omega Baptist Church, David Abney III, chairman of the Joint Board at Omega and Dr. G. Edwin Zeiders, President of United Theological Seminary signed documents on June 3 that closed Omega's purchase of the former UTS property located at 1810 Harvard Blvd. in Dayton. The site includes more than 30 acres and six buildings, some of which were built in the 1920s. The campus was designed by the architectural firm that also designed Central Park in New York City. Omega plans to use the property to build a worship center and an educational facility that will continue the church's outreach to the community. Omega and UTS have made agreements that will allow UTS to remain on the property until the renovations at the seminary's new site at 4501 Denlinger Rd. in Trotwood, are completed. UTS will occupy the former Jewish Community Center, just three miles north of the former seminary campus. UTS officials hope to hold fall classes there in September. Last updated on 25 Apr 2008 |
