Mens 5: This is not a program. This is not a series. Mens 5 is based on groups of a handful of men, of every age, coming together once a month and sharing life. The laughter and sorrows, the joys and pains. From practically serving others, sharing meals, or studying God’s Word, every group will look different as the Spirit leads. You will create friendships that cannot be shaken, that will last a lifetime. See David in the lobby after the service for more info or to sign up. MRBC Photo and Phone Directories: Directories We are in the
final stages of preparing this year’s photo directory. Please stop by the table in the lobby, after the service today to verify your information.
