Members
Drawing each other towards Jesus
WHAT IS MEMBERSHIP?
A covenant relationship affirming one’s faith in Jesus and drawing believers to richer discipleship
“The church exists for nothing else but to draw men into Christ, to make them little Christs. If they are not doing that, all the cathedrals, clergy, missions, sermons, even the Bible itself, are simply a waste of time. God became man for no other purpose.” – C.S. Lewis
Membership to a local body of believers is not just a social club with added perks. Covenant membership provides a family of believers to affirm one’s faith in Jesus, to hold accountable the discipleship of its believers, and to labor alongside one other in the spread of the gospel message.

Stephen ministers are here to care
Stephen Ministry
Our Stephen Ministers are ready to bring God’s love and care to those in need.
Stephen Ministers are members of Mercy Church who have been through extensive training and provide confidential, one-to-one Christian care to people who are experiencing a difficult time. They listen, care, encourage, pray, and provide weekly support for as long as the need persists.
If you or someone you know is hurting, you can find out more about Stephen Ministry by talking with one of our Stephen Leaders: Craig and Michele Bender.
Use the button below to email Craig and Michele with “Stephen Ministry” in the subject line, or call Member Care at 980-288-8239 to connect.

Member Resources
We believe care and support are provided best through Biblical community in community groups. These are the relationships we encourage you to pursue Christ with and receive care in. However, there are times we may need specialized, focused care for a particular season of life or struggle. Alongside community groups, We have care team members to walk alongside those who are experiencing a time of crisis. They are available for hospital visitation, one-to-one care, prayer, or to walk alongside you during a difficult time.
