Who are we?

We are young, but we are known for so much more than being young. We carry a passion and a hope for what is to come and what should be.

MCC Students is more than a gathering of students, it is a movement birthed out of Maryland Community Church with the goal of helping students take one step closer to Christ.

We are a COMMUNITY of Students following CHRIST
and serving in His CAUSE.

We believe that MCC Students could be the most influential force in our schools and community, so we are set on challenging every student to take their next steps in their faith journey however the spirit leads. We do this through weekly small groups and worship, weekend worship experiences, serving opportunities, and life changing special events and retreats for students in grades 6th-12th.

Thanks for stopping by and checking us out!

What are Small Groups?

Here at MCC Students, small groups are the life blood of our ministry. We believe that life is best done in circles and not rows. By this, we mean that we are a big believer in community and that faith best grows when done with other people.

Our identity is that: We are a COMMUNITY of STUDENTS following CHRIST and serving in HIS CAUSE.

Each week students gather for an intentional time of worship, a weekly large group message, and then we split into gender and grade level for small groups.

Each small groups is equipped with trained small group leaders who will love and help lead your student to take one step closer to Christ. Below is a list of current small groups:

• 6th Grade Boys

MCC Students Summer Calendar 2019

Weekly

The front door for middle school students!

This is our time each Sunday to come together as a community to get to know each other and the God we serve. Various media are used to help us engage during our time together: music, videos, skits, games, teachings - whatever helps us take steps closer to Jesus. After the lessons we go into small groups and then into the sanctuary as a group to worship with the rest of MCC.

We meet at 9:30 am and 11:15am in the Student Center at HWY 46 [At 12 PTS campus we encourage students to serve at the 9:30am service and attend the Sunday Student Service at 11:15am] Sunday mornings at MCC is a great opportunity for students in 6th-8th grade to invite their friends to church.

Wednesday Night Live (WNL) is for high school students (9th-12th grade).

The first Wednesday of every month will feature live worship for both campuses at one of our two campuses, and then for three other Wednesdays each month we will have our small groups meeting in host homes. These three sessions will include a message tailored to their age group that is gender and grade specific. 6:30 PM - 8:00 PM.
