Frequently Asked Questions
What does Manchester Christian Church offer for students on Sunday mornings?
For many reasons, we encourage students to attend one of our three
services, 8:30, 10:00, or 11:30 and when they are ready, we encourage
them to serve in a ministry somewhere in the church. As you look around
MCC, you will see students serving in all sorts of capacities. At MCC
the students are not the future of the church, they are the church
right now. Most of our students would describe MCC as "THEIR" church,
not their parents.
Check out the XP3 page for more information on our curriculum.
How can I serve?
All of the adults that serve in Fusion have been Child-Safe Certified
by MCC. This certification involves a thorough application, 3 reference
checks (all called), criminal background check, child-safe class, and a
one-on-one interview.
