Ladies, we want to invite you to attend our Shine Women’s Ministry starting in January. Our weekly Bible study will take place each Tuesday, from 9am-10am here at MCC. Pastor Mechele will begin the January teaching on an exciting study called “Breakthrough.
“If you’re praying for a breakthrough and not seeing it, do not give up. Opposition precedes breakthroughs.” We will learn many keys to understanding more about this topic!
5 Keys about Breakthrough in you life!
1. What is Breakthrough?
2. What can block Breakthrough?
3. What if I don’t see Breakthrough?
4. How long does a breakthrough last?
5. What happens after Breakthrough and what does it look like?
If you have any questions feel free to speak to Pastor Mechele or email shine@maranathadekalb.org

Ladies, we want to invite you to attend Shine, a ministry just for you! Our weekly Bible study takes place each Tuesday, from 9am-10am here at MCC, and is for ladies of all ages.
This month in Shine, our focus will be on PRAYER, and resetting our prayer lives. We just finished an amazing study on breakthrough. Prayer is one of our biggest weapons to bring that breakthrough to pass. We will take it back to the foundation of a powerful prayer life, learn prayer strategies and refocus our attention to have an intentional, powerful and passionate prayer life! No matter where you are in your prayer life God always has more!

Shine | Ladies Ministry: Event currently postponed until further notice.
2020-03-24 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

Unite 714 Prayer
2020-04-02 07:14 - 2020-04-27 19:14
As a church we want to invite and encourage you to join with us in something called UNITE714. This movement is calling pastors, leaders, churches, and individuals from not only our community, but around the globe, to join together — with one heart, one voice, and one prayer — to see COVID-19 halted, lives healed, people come to Christ, and a spiritual awakening among the nations. We are asking you to set an alarm on your phone or watch each day at 7:14 AM and 7:14 PM, when will join together around the globe to pray the same weekly prayer that comes from 2 Chronicles 7:14, where God promises us that when we humble ourselves, unite in prayer and seek His face, He will hear us, He will speak, He will forgive, and He will heal our lands. For more information on this and for specific prayer topics visit Unite714.com.

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.
