This summer we officially launched community groups at MHC. The response has been positive with an eagerness to continue. We’re grateful to deepen our bonds as a church family by continuing our groups through the fall season. If you’ve not yet made it out to one of our groups, we’d love to have you join […]
Joy is in high demand and low in inventory these days. In its place we find many sad realities: distraction, depression, and despair to name a few. The apostle Paul was someone well acquainted with hardship and, surprisingly, he was well acquainted with joy! In his letter to the church at the Philippi we learn […]
