Learn MoreBy being a multi-generational faith community, we strive to live as “a healthy extended family” that loves, honors, respects, and values one another in ways which honor God and also exhibit a genuine friendliness, care, and concern for our neighbors. We seek to provide experiences and programming for all ages that promote spiritual growth, meaningful worship, supportive fellowship, and servant mission. In all we do and are, we want to deepen our connections with God and one another.
As an open and affirming Disciples of Christ congregation, we are striving to become a people of grace and welcome. All can participate in the full life and leadership of Mackinaw Christian Church regardless of race, gender, age, sexual orientation, gender identity, nationality, ethnicity, marital status, physical or mental ability, political stance or theological perspective. In all we do and are, we want to deepen our connections with God and one another.
We are a family church which means we are first and foremost relational. Everyone knows each other's names and we are there for each other through the joys and sorrows of life. We practice incarnation ministry. Just as God sent Jesus into the world to share God's love through teaching, sharing in meals, and laughing and crying with both friends and strangers we also share God's love through our action.
We are a family which means we do not always agree with one another, we have people with various beliefs and values yet we have chosen to gather together. Because we believe God's love is greater than our ideas.
The identity statement of the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) states: "We are Disciples of Christ, a movement for wholeness in a fragmented world. As part of the one body of Christ we welcome all to the Lord's table as God has welcomed us.
