TONIGHT, November 5, 6:00pm - 7:00pm

Join us in the MIPC Gym for a potluck dinner, fellowship, and interactive activities hosted by our 4th–7th grade students, led by Jen and Steve. All ages are welcome! Please RSVP and, if you can, bring a dish to share. Or just come! We look forward to gathering around the table with you!

9:30am Sundays in the A-B Classroom

The book of Esther is a comic tale of inept leadership, devious plots and startling reversals, that reads like a fictional fairy tale. Yet at the same time, it powerfully addresses issues such as women's rights, ethnic persecution, and genocide, which are just as relevant today as they were over 2000 years ago. 

As we seek to faithfully live out our ministry and mission in 2027, the Session is asking everyone who considers MIPC their church community to turn in a pledge (an estimate of giving) for the coming year, which will enable the leadership to create a thoughtful budget for the year. We hope to hear from everyone by November 30th. It takes the giving of the entire community to enable the worship, service, ministry, and mission of MIPC.

Please prayerfully consider how you can participate in financially sharing in the ministry of the church this coming year. You can fill out a pledge form on paper or online.

Come to an evening of crafts! Crafts will include pumpkin centerpieces, candles, dried bean soup packets, and more! Participants will make crafts to take home as well as extras for MIPC's Crafts of the Heart.

Monday, November 9 from 7:00 - 8:30 pm in the Fireside Room. Cost is $12 pp, to help cover the cost of supplies and snacks. Minimum age is 15.

Wednesday, November 11th

The church office will be closed on Wednesday, November 11, to honor our veterans. (The Pebble Preschool will be open and operating.)
