Together Strong
Life is not meant to be done alone. Every person is valuable in God’s family. MVC Group Life provides opportunities to connect with that family and grow in our faith. It’s not just focused on Bible study, but also on learning to hear God’s voice in our own lives and discern what Jesus is leading us to do. We do that together in a safe environment, so that we can encourage and support one another in taking steps to obey Jesus and walk with Him more and more each day.
Intentionally small + informal
We want to experience life together in an authentic and non-threatening way. Our small groups are kept low in number to help nurture our “life on life discipleship”.
Small Groups
MVC Small Groups are for every walk of life. We have a deep desire to help Believers connect with other Believers and grow closer to our Lord and King.

Young Adults
The Young Adults group exists to build community, live out our mission to make disciples who make disciples, and empower each other to use the gifts that God has blessed us with! We have a deep passion for being in God’s word and showing each other what it looks like to follow Jesus! We believe that a Christ-centered community is where we are going to best grow and help each other further step into our purpose for Jesus!
The Young Adult group meets for service projects, discipleship groups, hangouts, large group events, and more! We gather on every 1st and 3rd Thursday of each month. To get plugged in contact Mat Drozd at mat.drozd@mvcstaff.email. We can’t wait to see you there!

MEN's Group Life
The turning point of our lives is when we stop seeking the God we want, and start seeking the God who is. Imagine the doctor just told you, “I’m sorry, but you only have five weeks to live.” What would be important to you? What would you want to do, and with whom?
Pat Morley from “Man in The Mirror” will start delving into the five most important realms of a man’s life. He will start off by telling you the greatest lesson he’s ever learned. Then we’ll talk about your life and legacy–whether 5 more weeks or 50 more years–can be filled with love, peace, joy, significance, purpose, beauty, worship, awe, great relationships, and leaving the world a better place. Below are the five topics we will discuss.
1. Finding a Deeper Personal Relationship With God
2. Finding a New Best Friend in your Wife
3. Finding Respect and Honor at Home
4. Fulfilling God’s Plan for Your Life
5. Do Something Great with Your Life
So join us every other Saturday, starting Oct 24th at 8:00am in rooms 101/102 for food, fellowship and breakout sessions on “5 Weeks to Live”. We will have breakfast sandwiches and coffee. (freewill offering).
