(Posted on 3/17, Updated on 3/20)

On 3/17 the building at 100 Stone Pine closed until further notice. But the CHURCH didn’t!

The church pastors and staff have moved all our work to home just like so many of you. We are connecting with each and with our teams and with all of you in very creative ways: Zoom, email, text, video, and of course phones. 

So here are some FAQ’s as to how we are going to stay connected in the coming weeks:

  1. Weekend Service. Join us on Sunday at 9:15 or 10:45 for an online interactive worship service at https://marinershmb.online.church!
  2. LifeGroups. All groups have been moving to video chat services like ZOOM and Google Hangouts. They are working really well!
  3. Almost Daily Encouragement Videos. Look for text/email alerts on short videos from our pastoral staff throughout the week. Subscribe to our YouTube Channel at https://www.youtube.com/MarinersHMB. 
  4. OPEN CONNECT GROUPS. If you aren’t in a LifeGroup, you still need to connect with others.

PLEASE BE THE CHURCH. Make calls or email people you know in the church, your neighbors, and of course family, making sure they are all ok. As we go further into this, many might become lonely and would love to hear a kind and encouraging voice. The church directory is available on myMCC. https://marinerscc.org/mymcc/ If you have never logged in, an email will be sent to Len for him to authorize. So don’t be concerned you can’t get in immediately. He will be monitoring this closely so the delay will be minimal.

Stay Safe. Stay Connected.
