We have an opportunity to serve nearly 1000 Afghan refugees we are expecting to arrive in the OKC area in the next few weeks. There are a lot of unknowns in the situation, and planning by the resettlement agency is ongoing, so patience and flexibility are appreciated as we plan to assist this vulnerable group.⁠ ⁠ For information on ways you can assist this need, go to: www.mrcc.org/refugee

Join us for a new parenting class beginning Wednesday, October 6! The class will address the critical issues involved in learning when to say “yes” and when to say “no” to help your children gain control of their lives. From temper tantrums and attitude problems to drugs and sex, learning limits and becoming responsible is a major part of growing up, and this class will help equip you in these areas.⁠

On Sunday morning, Phil will continue our "All In" series by looking at the powerful prayer from the early disciples in Acts 4. When faced with imprisonment and persecution, these courageous followers of Jesus did not pray for safety but for boldness. Phil will explore how we might apply this today when we come face to face with our own fears and problems. #AllIn #Acts #prayer #boldness

“Lord, Do It Again.”⁠ ⁠ On Sunday morning, Phil will bring our next message in our series "All In." While he has taken a specific look at the 42nd verse from chapter 2 in the last few weeks, this week Phil will tackle the chapter as a whole, giving us a fresh vision of the power of Pentecost. Phil will challenge us to think about the possibility of this kind of event taking place today. What kind of people would we need to be for a Pentecost in our day? What kind of practices and attitudes would need to be present for presentence and baptism to sweep the twenty-first century like it did in the first? #ALLIN #Acts

Join us for a Men's Dinner with speaker David Duncan from Houston, TX. Dinner is $12. You can register at www.mrcc.org/sharpen.

On Sunday, Phil will continue our series "All In" by taking a look at another unique feature of the early church: generosity. From the very beginning, the early followers of Jesus excelled in this practice. Their open-handed charity did not come from guilt or obligation, but from the fact that they’d experienced the powerful grace of God. Phil will explore the unique relationship between these two concepts, grace and generosity, and offer ways that the church today can not only be saved by grace but moved by it as well. #ALLIN #MRCC #GRACE #GENEROUS

We often view intellect as the basis of a strong faith, but the people with the strongest faith are people that put their faith into action. We don't have to be called like Matthias, we can be like James- step up, recognize our passions, and use them to further the kingdom. View Phil's entire lesson at: https://youtu.be/dFjMTlbcXaM To find a way to put your faith into action at MRCC go to mrcc.org/expo.
