Kids will step back in time with the Apostle Paul and experience what life was like in first-century Rome! They will discover how God’s love is a gift, it changes us, is always with us, saves us, and is definitely worth sharing with others.

1 & 2 Peter Women’s Bible Study
2nd & 4th Wednesdays | 7-9PM | MBC – Room 206
WOMEN’SMINISTRY NEIGHBORHOODCOMMUNITIES The metaphor that we use to describe the nature of the church is a hospital and a home. In the New Testament, Jesus says that those who are spiritually sick need a place to get well, and those in search for a place to belong need a new family, a spiritual family. This fall we are excited to launch a new ministry at MBC, Neighborhood Communities. We are looking to develop small to mid-size groups that meet in different homes of members of our church that can serve as a spiritual extended family for those seeking to discover and become more like Jesus. Be looking for more information about them as the summer goes along.
This summer study will dive deep into the books of 1 & 2 Peter. Ladies of all ages and stages are welcome. Dates are: June 14, 28, July 12, 26, August 9 and 23. Join us for any of the session you can attend. For questions, please connect with Brooke Fossell at bafossell@sbcglobal.net.
Igniting the Passion to Pray
Mondays | July 24-August 28 | 7-8:30PM MBC - Room 111 "Igniting a Passion to Pray" - a study for all women who want to be encouraged in their personal and group prayer times. Developed by Moms in Prayer International, we will walk through the Four Steps of Prayer: praise, confession, thanksgiving and intercession, based on Scripture.
