Schedule
Celebrate Missions is an opportunity to highlight and celebrate the work of Met Missionaries and ministry partners. Throughout the week, each ministry will have the opportunity to welcome a missionary or ministry partner to their regular program, where they will share how God is at work both locally and around the world. In addition, we look forward to several special events which will be open to our whole church family, providing opportunities to hear stories from around the world, pray for our ministry partners and global missions, and be better equipped and encouraged in the work God is doing.
Mark your calendars for Sunday, October 26 to Friday, October 31. More details to come!
