Another great day to be in church on Sunday as we worshipped, shared in communion, studied from the Book of John, connected around coffee and biscuits (10am) and shared a meal together (6pm Meet Jesus). God is doing beautiful things in the lives of people and we continue to pray that we connect with people who don’t yet know Jesus.
This coming Sunday night would normally be our prayer night after the 6pm service but this month you are being encouraged to pray for those on your Meet Jesus card that you have been praying for already – you may choose to do this on your own or with others but there will be no prayer night here at MCC.
Let’s continue to pray for 2 people a day for 2 minutes to Meet Jesus.
If you have someone in your life who is asking questions, or is seeking answers, then invite them along to Meet Jesus—enjoy a meal together and look at a verse from John in the bible as a small group. Sunday's 6pm August and September.
Pastor Stephen looked at John 3:1-21 last Sunday.

When we meet Jesus today, we meet the Risen Jesus.
- Evidence to believe the resurrection
What difference does it make when we believe in Jesus?
- From fear to joy in the presence of Jesus (peace be with you)
We are given a mission by Jesus
- We are sent by Jesus
God wants to use each of us
Pastor Stephen led us in The Word last Sunday.
It was exciting to see so many kids head out to kids@church. Thank you to the leaders and also to those who may consider being a part of the k@m leader team.
Pastor Stephen looked at John 11 and the story of Lazarus
But in particular looking at a person of faith in this story. Model of faith in Martha.
What is believing in Jesus look like?
On one hand it’s simple even for children, on the other hand life can get complicated or distracted from Jesus.
Faith holds us when things get tough. Jesus wants us to go to Him - to seek out Him in the joy and sorrow.
Let’s go to Jesus (Martha went to Jesus)
- Prayer is going to Jesus - when we don’t understand what going on - talk to Jesus
Jesus has a plan
- Life is not going to go to as we plan, puzzles to work through. Take our questions to Jesus.
Martha believed in Jesus with her whole heart even though things went differently to what she wanted. She looked at Jesus as her first port of call.
