We are suspending Bible Study/Sunday School for the current time. Below is our invitation to you when we get to gather in-person again…
At 9:30 A.M., we have Bible Study (or Sunday School) for all ages. Our children from newborns through 5th grade meet in the education wing of the main building (go through the front door and someone will show you to your room,) Enthusiastic
and prepared teachers look forward to teaching your children. Our youth in
grades 6-12 & college & adult classes also meet in the main building
off the education hallway. Please join us as we dive
into studying God’s Word.
WORSHIP @ 10:30 A.M.
We are enjoying worship this week in-person & also streaming our Sunday worship service. We will continue to update you as our plans evolve.
For those wishing to know our weekly schedule, when not affected by the coronavirus, please read the following…
Each Sunday at 10:30 A.M., we meet in the Worship Center to sing praises to God, share in the Lord’s Supper, and study God’s word together. Children from infants through 5 years-old meet in the education wing for a time of crafts and games. Children in Grades 1-5 are in the Worship Center for the first half of the worship service. During the Message time, they join the younger children in the education wing for and age-appropriate lesson time of their own. We invite you to come worship with us!
THE CONNECTION @ 7 P.M.
We invite you to join us on Wednesday for The Connection. We are gathering on-campus AND ALSO online simultaneously. If you want to join us virtually, PLEASE CONTACT US! We will email you an invitation that you will just click. Those joining virtually will be able to participate in our lesson along with those who are on campus.
We are studying the New Testament book of James. We are using the Life Guide Bible Study James: Faith That Works. We all want a faith that won’t let us down in times of trouble or loss, uncertainty or fear. A faith that can pull us through the worst – and best – times in our lives. This is the kind of faith that James writes about. It is the faith that we practice day by day. Studying James will help us grow a steadfast faith that can carry us through life.
Hope to see you on-campus or online.
We invite you to join us at The Connection on Wednesdays at 7 P.M.

MCC is committed to serve in the Mission Store at Mission Lexington on the 1st Saturday of each month from 10 a.m. – 1 p.m.. There are numerous ways to serve. We clean the store, straighten the aisles, staff the cash register, and greet the customers. We’d love for you to join us in this ministry to the community. If you are interested in helping, please sign up in the foyer next to the water cooler or call the church office.
HELPING THE HOMELESS
We have volunteers who serve the homeless population in various ways. We have some who serve in Columbia with Family Promise of the Midlands and others who serve locally by laundering clothes, grocery shopping, and providing direct care for the homeless.
Collection of winter clothing for the homeless will this year be focused on new or used outerwear for the children who are living in Lexington shelters. We will also collect new underwear. If you have winter clothing for men or women, we will deliver these to local shelters, too. Remember, coats, hats, scarves, and gloves are all useful. Blankets are also needed to make it through the winter. The basket for donations is located in the foyer under the appropriately labeled sign. The Helping the Homeless Team welcomes you to join in this service. If you are interested, please contact the church office.
CONNECTION LUNCH
MCC’s Activities and Outreach Ministry hosts an opportunity for fellowship, Connection Lunch. Approximately every other month, a restaurant will be chosen and EVERYONE
who would like to join the fun will go out to eat together after church.
PRAYER MINISTRY
MCC’s Prayer Ministry prays for each person who worship at MCC every week! They are also committed to praying for those on our prayer list weekly. If you are interested in joining us in praying for the church & its concerns, please join us. If you would like to be a part this new Prayer Ministry, please contact the church office.
