THIS WEEK @ MC3
April 22, 2019
Paradise Lost & Found
Scripture: Luke 15:1-7

Ever since the first sin in the Garden of Eden, humans have struggled to find paradise (the place of peace with God). In Luke 15, Jesus tells a series of stories about a lost sheep, a lost coin and a lost son to highlight the struggle to find the place of peace with God. This Sunday, we will unpack Luke 15, and discover how those who are lost can truly find their way back to paradise. 
Bring a visitor to MC3 this Sunday (4/28) and we'll treat them to lunch!
As part of our emphasis on inviting people to church, we will be providing $20 vouchers to any member who brings a visitor to church this Sunday , April 28, so that you can treat them to lunch after worship.

The Sunday after Easter is typically one of the least attended. We hope an invitation to lunch might entice one of your Easter visitors to join us again on the week after we celebrate the Lord's resurrection.

To claim your $20 voucher, simply submit your receipt, along with the names of those who joined you for lunch, to the church office, and we'll write a reimbursement check. Or, if you prefer, we will treat the $20 as a donation and add it to your contribution statement.

Let's fill up our area restaurants on the Sunday after Easter with people we've invited to church.
Churchwide picnic planned for May 5 at J.B. Williams Park on Five Forks
MC3 will host a churchwide picnic for our members and their guests on May 5, at J.B. Williams Park right after our regular Sunday worship service.

We will be cooking hamburgers and hot dogs and providing drinks, while asking everyone to bring their favorite picnic food to share.

The cookout will begin at noon in the Levengood Pavilion. The park is located across from the Mountain Park complex and the address is 4935 Five Forks Trickum Road, Lilburn, GA 30047.
