But seek the welfare of the city where I have sent you into exile, and pray to the Lord on its behalf, for in its welfare you will find your welfare. ~Jeremiah 29:7

Give to MCC

Some people may wonder what a little church can do to Serve the World. 
Here at MCC, we start with the work right in front of us, here in our city.  We do what we call, Filling the Holes. Each member identifies, claims, and is empowered to participate in mission work that fits his or her own calling, interests, and gifting.
​
Here are some examples of how we Fill the Holes
