New Here?
Walking into a new church can be overwhelming, intimidating, and possibly even terrifying depending on your previous church experience.
We strive for a loving, relaxing, and comfortable environment that will allow you the freedom to come and explore.
On a Sunday morning you might see some people in a suit and tie, others in a t-shirt and shorts, and a lot of in between. We believe that God doesn't expect us to clean ourselves up before we come to Him and His church; so we say...Come Just as YOU are!
It is all about Jesus!
If you don't remember anything when you leave our gathering except how radically awesome Jesus is, we view that as a huge success!
If you are considering attending one of our worship gatherings, we pray that you would take the step and come check it out! We can't fully describe what you will experience, but at least we can try to give you an idea of what to expect.
Our worship gatherings usually last around 60 minutes and include worship through music, the preaching of God's Word, prayer, and the Lord's Supper on the first Sunday each month. We also periodically celebrate believer's baptisms.
Worship Service
Our Worship Service is designed to be the high point of the week. We purposely design our worship service for Fellowship, Excitement, and Expectation.
Fellowship: Our primary purpose is to come into fellowship with God through praise, worship, and His Word. Our secondary purpose is to fellowship with one another and do life together.
Excitement: Corporate Worship is a special time designed by God so that we can be with Him and He with us. As a result we come excited to meet with God.
Expectation: Since God meets us in our corporate worship, we enter each service with great expectation of God's work in our midst.
Frequently Asked Questions
Hi! We’re glad you’re interested in learning more about Marquette Community Church. We look forward to meeting you and welcoming you in person!
Until then, we hope these answers help you feel more comfortable—whether this will be your first visit, your second, or your hundredth visit to MCC.
Q: What can I expect at a Sunday Service?
A: Our services are held in person and livestreamed, except for certain special events; Christmas and Easter services may be a little different.
You’ll find people of all ages, backgrounds, and life experiences at MCC. Attire ranges from casual to dressy casual, so come as you are and wear what makes you comfortable. Whether you are visiting for the first time or have been attending for years, you are welcome here.
Q: What kind of music do you worship with?
A: At MCC, our worship is primarily contemporary, with an occasional hymn woven in as well. Our gifted worship team is not here to put on a performance; they are here to help create a welcoming space where everyone can draw closer to God. Whether you know every song or are simply exploring faith, we invite you to join us just as you are.
Q: Will my kids have activities on Sundays too?
A: Kids are tremendously valuable to us at MCC! We want children and families to feel welcome, comfortable, and at home when they worship with us.
• Sunday School: Every Sunday at 8:45 a.m., we offer age-graded Sunday School classes for infants through high school seniors. We use the Answers in Genesis curriculum, which provides Christ-centered Bible studies and helps children see the story of the gospel: God’s plan to rescue His people from sin through His Son, Jesus Christ.
• Children’s Church: During our 10:30 a.m. worship service, children in kindergarten through fourth grade are dismissed before the sermon for Children’s Church.
• Worshiping as families: We value family-integrated worship because children are an important part of our church family. We believe children should feel just as at home in God’s house as anyone else. And relax—God put the wiggle and the giggle in little children, so please do not feel that you need to suppress it!
• Sermon activity bags: Activity bags are available at the main sanctuary entrance. They include a children’s activity bulletin, crayons, and often a small toy.
• Nursery: A staffed nursery is available for infants through age 4 during both Sunday School and the worship service. You are welcome to take advantage of this safe and secure ministry.
• Foyer seating: If you need to step out for a moment with an anxious little one, the worship service is broadcast on a television in the foyer. Please feel free to return and rejoin us whenever you are ready.
