MCC started by meeting in Kinder School. It would be fair to say that since those 50 people met for the first time on May 9, 1954, God has done immeasurably more than they could have hoped or imagined!
And He has continued to do that through us today. Paul reminds us that it is according to HIS POWER AT WORK WITHIN US that God does immeasurably more than our wildest dreams in our individual lives and in the life of our church family.
Now to Him Who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to His power that is at work within us, to Him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, for ever and ever! Amen.
Immeasurably More is a 25-month journey of sacrificial giving designed to expand our ministry to the next generations. By making this commitment together, MCC will be able to renovate our Nursery through 5th grade areas in our main building plus remodel our recently purchased 37 Lawrence building whose primary use will be to house our growing Student Ministry.
63% of Christians made their decision to follow Jesus between the age of 4 and 14.
About The Campaign
Because we believe that God has called us to love Him, love people, and Live on His Mission of helping people of all generations become disciples of Jesus. To continue to reach more children and students, we need to expand our NextGen ministry areas.
We purchased 37 Lawrence Ave with congregational approval and now it needs remodeled. This new ministry space will primarily house our Student Ministry, but also other envision it providing additional space for other ministry opportunities such as marriage enrichment seminars, young adult gatherings, women/men’s ministry events, and senior adult gatherings. We also need to renovate our Nursery through 5th grade classrooms and hallways to accommodate our growing number of children. The Immeasurably More campaign will provide the funds for these renovations.
During our Immeasurably More campaign (October-November), you and your family will be asked to prayerfully make an “above and beyond” faith and financial commitment for the next 25 months.

My Part
As you learn more about the campaign over the next few months, please know that the most important thing you can do is pray!
Pray for those leading the campaign, pray for those working to finalize detailed plans, pray for unity and vision, and pray for how God may want to use you.
Pray that God will open each of our hearts and minds to how He can do IMMEASURABLY MORE.
We also ask that you pray about making a financial commitment above your regular giving.
Your “yes” will be life changing FOR you, and THROUGH you.
Give Courageously. Give the largest gift you have ever given to the church on November 10th.
Give Consistently. Make a 25-minth commitment to giving weekly or month above and beyond your regular giving.
Give Creatively. Think non-cash gifts of real estate, jewelry, cars, stocks, and assets.
