Support for Ukrainian refugee families/Open Hands/The Open Door
MCBC thanks you so much for your generous support for our Ukrainian refugee families. It is very much appreciated! For now we are no longer receiving donations for this Ukrainian refugee ministry. Please note, this also applies for the Open Hands and Open Doors ministries. We have lots of goods available for these programs and are not in need of any further donations at this time.
ALPHA
Alpha is an 11-week course that explores the basics of the Christian faith. If you have questions about God, life and faith, this course is for you! Each session includes three components:
- Food – eating food together creates space for people to connect.
- Teaching – the video talks are designed to engage people from all walks of life and to engage conversation. We’ll look at topics like, “Who is Jesus?” or “Why and How Do I Pray?”
- Discussion – This is a time for questions and for people to express their own thoughts in an honest and open environment.
This course is offered each fall at MCBC. Contact Pastor Sheldon to sign up or to learn more about Alpha.
