Dear Alumni and Friends,
God is good! These last few weeks have been exciting!
The 2009-2010 school year is well under way with great students, faculty and staff. Our alumni soccer and volleyball games the end of August were terrific and full of great competition and fellowship. The week of September 24-26 was jam-packed with our annual leadership breakfast, MCC golf tournament, family weekend, and of course the big event we've all been waiting and praying for - the re-opening and dedication of Jolliffe Hall. Let me say it again - God is good!

JOLLIFFE HALL RE-OPENS!!! |
|
Dedication/Reception a blessing to all who attended
After nearly 80 years of being used to grow future generations in ministry leadership, Jolliffe Hall was completely renovated from the inside out and is once again ready to be a place where MCC students can learn, worship, and develop their gifts for the Lord Jesus Christ.
Our Jolliffe Hall dedication was truly honored by Almighty God and a blessing to all who attended. It was standing room only as 350 people gathered to praise God and give the building once more into the hands of the One who makes all things possible.
Many of you gave financially several years ago to this project, and we are truly grateful. Your giving was not in vain! Please continue to pray with us that God will raise up those who could help with the remainder of this project so that it could be fully funded. Maybe that is you! |

What do you enjoy most about being at/teaching at MCC? I enjoy seeing the students grow and mature in the years they are here.
