Word continues to spread that MHBC is a safe place to bring your kids trick or treating, so we expect our biggest crowd yet. And we need your help to keep this exciting outreach growing. We need you to bring your car and volunteer a couple hours of your week to pass out candy to the trick or treaters we’ll see on October 31.

Early Detection Screenings on November 6 On November 6, Life Line Screening will be at our church providing early detection screenings for various health concerns including strokes. Strokes affect over 750,000 Americans each year, and 97% of Americans cannot recognize the signs of a stroke. This is why we will bring Life Line Screening here to offer potentially life saving screenings. Life Line offers a variety of these screenings that range in price from $70 to $149. These screenings are not typically offered during regular physicals, so if you’d like to take the opportunity to be screened or learn more about Life Line, please contact the church office for additional information Thank You, Thank You All—for your prayers, cards, calls, etc. during my recent medical saga. I had back surgery on 7.22.14. It went well until the staph infection sent me reeling. It attacked many of my organs. I truly believe it was your prayers that pulled my through. I am still working to get back to my old (yes, I know) healthy self so, please, continue the prayers. You are a wonderful, caring family. Thanks for everything. Retha Fuller 3728 Taylorsville Rd.
