First time here
WHAT TO EXPECT
At Merrill Wesleyan Church, we offer a warm welcome that makes you feel right at home. Our friendly community is eager to treat you like family, ensuring that you feel a sense of belonging and comfort from the moment you step through our doors. Our members are dedicated to creating a welcoming environment, where you will be greeted with genuine smiles and offered assistance to help you find everything you need. Come and experience the warmth of a place that genuinely makes you feel like family, where you can build meaningful connections and feel supported in your spiritual journey.
In Person
We recommend arriving a few minutes early for both our 9:00 am and 10:30 am services to allow time for parking and finding your way to the Main Entrance. Our Main Entrance is located under the carport on the South Side of the building, providing convenient access to both of our Worship Service Locations. This will give you ample time to settle in and prepare for the service without feeling rushed.
What are our Worship services like?
At MWC, we value coming together to worship and are delighted to provide two unique services for our community.
Our 9:00 am Classic Connection Service is a time-honored experience that includes traditional worship with piano and organ accompaniment, incorporating cherished hymns from the Hymnal.
On the other hand, our 10:30 am Current Connection Service offers a modern worship atmosphere, featuring our talented Praise Band every Sunday.
Both services share the same uplifting message and are thoughtfully designed to inspire and elevate your spiritual connection, providing an opportunity for everyone to praise in a way that resonates with them.
ONLINE
Our 10:30 am service is also livestreamed to our website, our YouTube Channel as well as ourFacebook Page, for those unable to make our in-person gatherings.
This means that people who are unable to attend our physical gatherings can still participate in the service by watching it live online. Livestreaming allows individuals to engage with the content and community of the service remotely, ensuring that they can still be part of the experience even if they are unable to be physically present.
This can help people who are unable to leave their homes, traveling, working on Sunday mornings, or living far away. Livestreaming also allows more people to join the service, promoting inclusivity and accessibility.
Children
We love our kiddos! We prioritize the well-being and development of our children and are dedicated to providing a nurturing and secure environment for them.
We offer age-appropriate ministries where your kids can engage in activities tailored to their specific developmental stage, allowing them to learn and grow in a way that is suitable for them. This enables you to focus on your spiritual connection and build relationships with other adults during our Worship Services, knowing that your children are in a caring and supportive environment.
Sunday mornings for our 936 kids ministry
We provide Kids Church services for children in grades 2-5 during both of our services from September through May. If you're interested in this ministry for your children, please inform one of our greeters upon your arrival. Kids Church sessions are held in the lower level of our Children's wing.
For younger children, from pre-school through 1st Grade, we offer Jr. Kids Church during our 10:30 worship service, as well as a Nursery for the youngest children. Both of these ministries are staffed with caring and qualified workers.
Families are always welcome to have their kids join them in any of our Connection Services.
The safety of our children is our top priority, and we have implemented extensive measures to ensure a secure environment for both our children and adults. All children's workers undergo background checks approved by law enforcement agencies. We highly value everyone who walks through our doors and strive to provide a safe and nurturing environment for all.
