LEARN MORE ABOUT HOW TO GET INVOLVED UPCOMING EVENTS COMMUNITY GROUPS Church is not merely a weekly gathering, but a body of believers living together in intentional relationship. Community groups are the heart of our church body. We gather weekly in individual’s homes to discuss the sermon text and grow deeper in relationship with one another. Our community groups meet weekly, Tuesday through Thursday, at 6:30 pm. JOIN A GROUP PRAYER GATHERINGS Join us, at Pickerington for our quarterly Prayer Gathering from 6:00 to 7:00 pm or in Canal Winchester the third Sunday of every month after the gathering as we pray together as a body. We desire to be a body of believers who trust in the power of prayer, are shaped by the habit of prayer, and are edified by God's faithfulness in prayer. These gatherings guide us through different models of prayer and help us engage meaningfully with the needs of our church and world. JOIN US COMPASSION MINISTRY Our Compassion Ministry was created out of a belief that Jesus has directly called his followers to love and care for individuals in need. The Compassion Ministry seeks to provide ongoing outreach opportunities for the people of Maranatha to participate in so that they can be the hands and feet of Jesus to these individuals. Through this ministry, we are given opportunities as the body to step out in faith into uncomfortable spaces and be obedient to Christ's commands.
