Prayer and Fasting - Day 1
2021-01-04
His Kingdom Come, His Will Be Done
His will in our lives and through Maranatha Christian Center
Matthew 6:33

Each day contains a prayer focus. This includes one or two Scriptures to declare and meditate on. Please note that these are only suggestions so feel free to pray into each area in the way the Holy Spirit leads. All we ask is that you take some time to pray each day for the theme that’s given. This way there will be lots of focused prayer about each area, bringing breakthrough both personally and corporately.
Our desire as a church is to create a culture of prayer where we see breakthrough, miracles and God answering prayer on a daily basis. We believe that prayer is the fuel for our vision and breakthrough in your life. We will be fasting for 21 days. On our site under the “21 Days of Prayer and Fasting Guide,” you will find some helpful information on what, how, and why to fast. If you have further questions, please feel free to contact our staff at Info@maranathadekalb.org

Shine | Ladies Ministry - Event currently postponed until further notice.
2020-04-21 09:00 - 10:00, 2020-04-14 09:00 - 10:00
Ladies, you were meant to SHINE with the light and love of Jesus. But so often the world and all of its demands drains us of the joy, love, passion, and dreams that used to burn so brightly within us. As women, we need to draw strength and encouragement from one another and most importantly, from Christ!
Shine, the Ladies Ministry at Maranatha Christian Center, is a place where women of all ages can come together to find encouragement, hope, love, and friendship. Shine consists of weekly bible studies and yearly events and outings. Join us each Tuesday, from 9am-10am at MCC.
“let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.” Matthew 5:16

Easter Service Online
2020-04-12 10:30 - 12:30
As we prepare to celebrate our Risen Lord and Savior on Easter Sunday, we are doing things a little differently than any of us anticipated this year, but that doesn’t mean that the reason we celebrate is any less important and impactful! In fact, we are praying and believing that more people will come to know Jesus as their Lord and Savior this year, than ever before!!! Since we will be celebrating in our homes through our online service, we wanted to let you know that we will end the service with a special time of communion and we want to encourage you to participate in your homes with your families. All you’ll need is some grape juice and a cracker or bread of any kind. Pastor Steve will lead us through this special time together. No virus can keep us from celebrating the resurrection of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ! And we are reminded now more than ever before, that the church is not a building, but a people, and when we gather anywhere together, Jesus is with us.

Online Services
2020-04-05 10:30 - 2020-04-26 12:00
Just a reminder that our Sunday Services are currently being held online only – this is the perfect time to gather your family together, send it to the person you’ve been meaning to invite, and come together as The Church! We will be live on Facebook, YouTube and our website at 10:30am each week until further notice.
If you need anything during this time please reach out to us at info@maranathadekalb.org
