Last Sunday following our Sunday service a number of families gathered at Centennial Park in Mission to picnic and throw the friz. Young and old brought their lunches: everything from watermelon salad to KFC. Lots of good conversations and laughter were had by all. Those who weren't in to disc golf stayed back to chat some more. Competition was fierce as some tags (from the Fraser Valley Disc Golf Club) were on the line - as were some sweet prizes and the world's worst trophy. Kid's took home candy and freezies. Adults took home gift cards, many steps on their fitbits, and some freezies too! Thank you to Chris Kim and Jesse Tulman for planning another awesome Summer Sunday. Thank you for a bunch of our youth and young adults for helping out. Thank you to the City of [...]
After a few months of praying and searching, we found a home for our refugee family from the Dominican Republic of the Congo. The family will move to their new home August 15, 2016. Since March, our family has been sharing a home with a generous member of the community. We are receiving donations of furniture, kitchen and household supplies to equip the new home. We have received enough bedroom and living room furniture. Contact Patty Wielenga (pattywielenga@gmail.com) for more information on the present needs. If we are unable to receive your donation, please forwarding them to the MCC Thrift Store (they have been very generous in helping supply clothing and furnishings to refugees). Our family is very excited and grateful to establish their own home in time for the new school year. We are grateful for everyone's generosity: to the [...]

THE HOLY SCRIPTURES We believe the Bible is God-inspired (2 Timothy 3:16, 17). THE ETERNAL GODHEAD We believe God is triune: Father, Son and Holy Spirit (2 Corinthians 13:14). THE FALL OF MAN We believe that man was created in the image of God, but by voluntary disobedience fell from perfection (Romans 5:12, 19). THE PLAN OF REDEMPTION We believe that while we were yet sinners Christ died for us, signing the pardon of all who believe in Him (John 3:16; Romans 5:8). SALVATION THROUGH GRACE We believe that we have no righteousness and must come to God pleading the righteousness of Christ (Ephesians 2:8, 9). REPENTANCE AND ACCEPTANCE We believe that upon sincere repentance, and a whole-hearted acceptance of Christ, we are justified before God (Luke 24:46, 47; 2 Timothy 2:24-26; 1 John 1:9). THE NEW [...]
This past week I went camping with some good friends. Okay, I stayed in a motel at the campground while my friends roughed it in tent and travel trailers. Over the course of the week, but especially at our departure, my heart filled with love and gratitude for my friends. It had been a few years since we all got together for more than a meal. Something about busyness and having kids seems to be an obstacle to time with friends. So please stop reading this. Put down your screen and pick up your phone. Call your friend and set a date to get together. If you don't have a friend, make one. The art of friend-making and friend-keeping is a disappearing skill in culture. Take the awkward first step: introduce yourself and ask them to do something together (go to the park with kids, grab [...]
