LENT / EASTER 2023
"Action" COMPANION GROUPS - 5-Week groups have formed to share and prayer together as well as have an outward focus. Each group chooses one or two mercy and/or mission ministries that MBC supports, reach out to the advocate and perhaps the ministry leaders themselves to learn about what they do and what their needs are currently. The groups will be praying for those and, if applicable, can choose a hands-on project with the ministries.
