MCCC Weekly Update – April 16, 2023
We have sooo many events going on at MCCC that it actually feels like a pre-Covid time! It is exciting to see our church engage in some of our old and new activities. I hope you all continue to keep our momentum going with your ideas and participation! We can’t do it all without your help. If you would like to get more involved in one of our many missions, please feel free to reach out! You can always try out a group, and if it doesn’t seem to fit for you, reach out and try a different one until you find your niche! MCCC certainly has NO shortage of missions!
Take advantage of God’s beautiful weather!
