Ministries to Serve
Below is a brief summary of the ministries in which members of MBC may use their God-given gifts to bless the body. Be sure to read the provided documents and contact the ministry leader to inquire about serving.
Welcome Ministry
The welcome ministry is a great place for those who want to get to know new faces and are excited to talk about Christ. While every member of MBC is part of the welcoming ministry in a broad sense, the formal welcome ministry begins before the doors open and is the first point of contact for everyone attending Sunday Service. Contact John O'Haver if you are interested in serving in this ministry.
Usher Ministry
The usher ministry is an important ministry for the men of MBC. They serve before and during the service to help both attenders and members find a seat and ensure a smooth transition between different parts of the service. Contact Luis Hernandez to inquire about serving as an usher.
