Body Life Ministry
What is Body Life?
Growth in Christ happens through relationships. That is what the Body Life Ministry is about.
MBC provides a place for you to lean into relationships with a passion. We want to encourage you to reach outward and enjoy living, learning, and loving with those you are on life’s journey with. Whether you get together with a few friends to go camping, fix someone’s car, or go on a mission trip; whether you bear someone’s burden from your small group, or have a new friend from church over for coffee, you have an opportunity to love as Christ loves us.
And let us consider one another in order to stir up love and good works, not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as is the manner of some, but exhorting one another, and so much the more as you see the Day approaching. – Hebrews 10:24-25
The Body Life Ministry’s desire is to help encourage and enable you to connect with others. If there is a ministry in place in which you’re interested, we’ll help you get involved. Perhaps God has put it upon your heart to start something new, be it a ministry or even just a fun activity, we’ll help you get the word out.
Body Life Events
Church-wide Socials
MBC offers many events throughout the year that encourage families to come together with other families and share in a special time of fellowship and celebration. Some of the annual events are:
- Ice Cream Socials
- Fall Festival
- Children’s Christmas Pageant
- Chili Cook-off
- Rockhounds Baseball Game
Small Groups
Small Groups are a huge part of how MBC does life together.
As believers we are children of God, but only by doing life together do we act and look like the family of God. Small Groups are just one of the many ways we do life together at MBC.
Some Small Groups meet weekly, others bi-weekly, and they meet either Sunday, Monday, Tuesday or Thursday evenings. They fellowship together in many ways, share an occasional meal, study God’s Word and pray throughout the week for one another. It truly is a great way to love one another and to be loved as well.
If you’re interested in joining a small group, please call the church office (432) 684-9722 and ask for Chris. He can get you headed in the right direction.
Prayer Matters at MBC
Prayer is a critical part of life together at MBC. We love one another, we care about one another and we prayer for one another.
Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus. – Phillipians 4:6-7
Prayer Chain
Our Prayer Chain once existed in the form of an email that was sent out to inform people of how to pray. That email tool has now migrated into our use of The City. If you would like to be a part of the prayer chain now, The City is the place you want to be. For more information about joining The City, please contact us via the website or call the church office.
Prayer at Noon
We get together at noon on Tuesday at the church to pray for various things; people, family, our country, the sick and our church. Please feel free to join us anytime!
Body Life Ministry Teams
Body Life Leadership Team
The BL’s leadership team aims to help plug people into the body, or help folks get the word out on things they love to do; ministry, hobby or just special events. We’re simply working toward helping folks “do life” together. And that always comes in a variety of ways.
Welcome Team
Whether you are a first time guest or a regular attender, the Welcome Team is here to serve you! We’re here so you can get the information you need, find out where you need to go, or just chat with a friendly face over a cup of coffee.
If you are new to MBC and are looking for a place to get connected and serve, then this may be the ministry for you! Please call the church office and we’ll get you pointed in the right direction!
