Not MCCLV's First Challenge (and not our last)
Over the past twenty years, MCCLV has resided in four different buildings, experienced intolerance, faced loss, survived a recession, journeyed through conflict and endured the demands of a competitive religious marketplace. The COVID-19 pandemic is not MCCLV's first challenge and will not be our last.
The church is most grateful for the continuing support of many faith-filled people. The prayers, financial giving and online presence has made an immeasurable positive impact. Since the start of the pandemic MCCLV has provided over $5,000 in grocery store gift cards to households in need and has provided spiritual encouragement to countless individuals and families.
Want to be a part of a dynamic, vibrant and inclusive community that seeks a living, loving God? Join #MCCLVStrong for online worship and classes this week and learn more about all that God is doing through the faith community.
