At MRC, we want people to be inspired and challenged on Sundays and then be freed up during the week to ‘life out’ the message in all the environments they walk in now at home, work and in the community. We want to see people at home during the week, not at the church building, pursuing God and living out what it means to authentically follow Jesus and building relationships. Practically, that means we want people to focus on three things. First; love God, secondly; intentionally love a neighbor and lastly; intentionally be passionate about personal growth. So to free you from church structures and obligations, we don’t have the traditional programs that you might find in other churches. The MRC community is YOU ENJOYING and fully engaging THE COMMUNITY YOU ARE IN RIGHT NOW at home, work, community, etc. So how does someone Connect with Others at MRC?
Answer 1: In Serving Together
In all areas of MRC, you can make a difference simply by coming and serving. As you serve side by side with others, over time, you get to know them and they get to know you. We invite you to come and partner with us in whatever area brings you the most joy.
Answer 2: In the women’s or men’s or Growth Group environments
We offer women’s groups and men’s groups. These are great times to pull away from the world and engage others, to talk, pray and listen. We also have Growth Group environments that you can attend.
Answer 3: MRC in the Neighborhood
This group is a group of fun, prayer and action. The focus of this group to provide avenues for anyone at MRC to fully engage our culture in serving it. The Messy Kitchen cooks and bakes food to give to people who are walking through hard times. The Loaf'n Around Town team gets bread from Panera, wraps it up and delivers it to the homeless in Harrisburg and the migrant workers in Adams County.
