The roots of the Mount Carmel Church of Christ run deep in the hearts and history of this community. Christians met here first as a congregation in 1880. The Bible was, and continues to be our only guide into God's everlasting truths. We welcome visitors to join us for Bible study and worship and consider them our honored guests.
Our Ministries:
Bible Classes - We offer Bible Classes for all ages (nursery - adult). We have classes on both Sunday Morning and Wednesday Evening.
Missions - We support many mission works in various locations around the world. Apart from these missions, we are also involved in instate missions. Our members go into other states to teach, help start new congregations and help other congregations as they reach out into their communities with the Gospel.
YMCA - This is a group organized for the Young Mount Carmel Adults. It gives young Christians, married or single, an opportunity to study together and play together. Monthly activities are planned in various locations for fellowship.
Lads to Leaders and Leaderettes - This is a program in which our young people are prepared to assume leadership positions in the church as they become adults. It involves Bible study, leadership training, community involvement, benevolence works, Christian fellowship and fun. Their training includes skills for song leading, Bible class teaching, debate and public speaking.
Love in Action - Love in Action is a program in which God's Word and work are put into action. Although it is not the only manner in which we show our love and interest in others, it is an opportunity for each of us to participate in a special way to meet the needs of one another and our community.
Special Ministries:
Vacation Bible School - Is a week-long learning and fun activity for the children of our community held each June. We have classes, puppet shows, crafts, singing, refreshments and a picnic at the end of the week.
Home Bible Studies - In home Bible studies provide an opportunity for private study. Qualified teachers are ready to come into your home at your request to open God's Word for study. Special subjects or a survey of the complete Bible are available.
Correspondence Courses - For those who prefer to study on their own, we are happy to offer lessons by mail for you to complete at your own pace. The lessons are graded and returned to you with the next lesson. All answers will be found in your Bible.
Concluding Thoughts:
As a congregation, we are known only as the church of Christ. Individually, we are simply Christians. We have no earthly head-quarters, answering only to God. Our only guide is the Bible and we believe it to be the verbally inspired Word of God. We believe there is a heaven in which the redeemed will live and serve eternally around the throne of God. We also believe there is a hell in which the disobedient will be for eternity. We are bound together by cords of love for God and each other. Our goal is to share that love and the blessings of God with others. We invite you to come and be a part of the Mount Carmel Church of Christ.
