We do! A prayer chain is simply an arrangement for calling each other to pray when someone has a need for prayer. You can put a prayer request in the prayer chain by calling one of the elders. The elders call the people in the prayer chain. You can also become a link in the prayer chain. Just tell Pastor Kent or one of the elders that you would like to join.

Around the world coffee and fellowship come together where we share community. A warm pot of coffee is often the centerpiece of the fellowship hour, celebrations and other gatherings. As one of the most heavily traded commodities in the world, coffee is a direct link between our communities and farming communities in Latin America, Africa and Asia. Through the MCC US Coffee Project we can now enjoy great coffee while helping farmers earn a fair price for their products, have access to affordable credit and gain a long-term trading partner thy can trust, a Fair Trade Organization called Equal Exchange. With your support, these communities are able to invest in education, health care & agricultural improvements. In addition, for ech pound of coffee, tea or chocolate purchased by Mennonite & Brethern in Christ congreations through this project, Equal Exchange makes a contribution to MCC programs that support and strengthen community development in coffee-growing regions.
