"In the belief that the Kingdom of God can be
more speedily advanced and the spiritual needs of Mariemont vicinity
can be best served by uniting all Christian believers in their worship,
fellowship and Christian work, this church is founded."
--Mary Muhlenberg Emery, 1926
Today, May 4, we rededicated the Chapel to the service of the Lord after months of renovations. Inspired by the heart of founder Mary Emery, Joy Norman shared a brief history of the Chapel after a video of construction and reconstruction produced by Mark Lawry. We welcomed honored guests from the Emery Foundation and Oswald Construction. Coffee and refreshments were served on the newly stone-paved patio.
Enjoy photos of the services here. Download the dedication outline here .

May 4 at 9a, we'll begin an 18-week walk through the roughly 50
things Jesus
expressly taught his followers to do. However, the focus will not be on what,
but how. Here's an opportunity to enter into the climax of the great
commission, "teaching them to
observe all that I have commanded you," personally and as preparation
to teach others. Join us
each Sunday at Dale Park Middle School, lower level ... You'll be glad
you did.
For more information, contact Zeke Swift, Mike Cambron or John Cofskey.

Come be refreshed at
The Well
Wednesdays, 7-8p
Parish Center Lounge |
MCC's Wednesday evening gathering is changing. The Well is a time to be refreshed through worship and the Word. Each week, we'll focus on a prayer from scripture as we worship and pray together. There's freedom to pray out loud or silently, or just to rest in His presence. Bring your personal prayer needs as well. We'll have a time of ministry at the end. Leaders are available to pray with you for healing and other needs in your life.

Encountering the Subversive Spirituality of Jesus
By Bruxy Cavey
"Many of the people I talk to have a problem – they want their
lives to have a deeper sense of meaning, purpose, and value but they
don’t want to turn to God to find it.
When I probe a little deeper I find that many people
don’t really want to give up on God at all, but have become spiritually
discouraged through their own negative religious experiences. For them,
maybe for you, church has become a boring monument of antiquated
irrelevant traditionalism. And who needs that?!

"No Reserves. No Retreats. No Regrets."
In 1904 William Borden graduated from a Chicago high school. As heir to the Borden Dairy estate, he was already a millionaire. For his high school graduation present, his parents gave 16-year-old Borden a trip around the world. As the young man traveled through Asia, the Middle East, and Europe, he felt a growing burden for the world's hurting people. Finally, Bill Borden wrote home about his "desire to be a missionary."
One friend expressed surprise that he was "throwing himself away as a missionary."
In response, Bill wrote two words in the back of his Bible: "No reserves."
