Outsiders : Ready For Action

This week, we are reminded that we can face suffering with hope and without fear because Christ has overcome. Peter calls us to do good, respond to mistreatment with kindness, and share our hope in Christ with gentleness and respect. Even in difficult times, we can persevere knowing that Christ is victorious, and our future is secure in Him.

Here are the contribution numbers thru 09/30/2026.  

 

Contributions Received $749,524

Contributions Budgeted $914,057

Contributions Under Budget $164,533



This represents 18% below budgeted giving.


Giving And It's Eternal Impact

Your giving makes ministry possible—it allows us to reach future generations, invest in families, and share the transforming love of Jesus in our community and beyond. A Gift of Hope is one of the ways that we love the community around us.

 

Every single gift makes an eternal impact by fueling our mission of helping people KNOW Jesus, LIVE like Jesus, and LOVE like Jesus. Whether it's a physical gift for a child or a financial one, we encourage you to lean in and help out. 


Jesus reminds us not to store up earthly treasures that fade, but to invest in what lasts for eternity. 

Lead Pastor Updates

We’re encouraged by the progress being made in our Lead Pastor search! We’re grateful for how God has guided us throughout this process as we are now taking final steps to prepare for the last phase of the calling process. We look forward to sharing more with you in early November.


Thank you for your continued prayers, encouragement, and trust as we seek God’s direction together.

If you have questions or insights you’d like to share, we’d love to hear from you.


Weekly Prayer Prompt: Pray for wisdom and unity as we prepare for the final steps in calling MCC’s next Lead Pastor.

Student Fall Retreat - November 20-22

This year, we are diving deep into TRUTH. We’re excited to welcome Peter Pizzuto and the Y2B team, who will be leading our main sessions and breakouts. They’ll be tackling tough, crucial questions students face today:


- Identity & Worldview: Who are you? What is truth? Are there moral absolutes?

- Apologetics: What evidence is there that God exists? Is the Bible truly trustworthy?

- Hard Questions: Why is there so much evil in the world?

- Worship Experience: With our new LED Wall and the return of our popular multi-station worship setup on Saturday night, we are creating an incredible environment to encounter God.

- Epic Activities: Zip line, giant swing, bonfires, large group games, sports (basketball, volleyball, Football, Dodgeball, etc), and plenty of hangout time.

- Extras: A coffee trailer, snack shop, t-shirt store, and more!


For 7-12 graders - Cost is $165

Gift of Hope - December 5 | 5pm - 8pm

Every Christmas, we have the incredible privilege of coming together to collect toys for local children and families who are facing tough times.



This year, we’re taking it a step further—we aren't just giving gifts, we're throwing a massive holiday party for these families! Think family photos, hot chocolate, crafts, and so much fun.
