Metropolitan Ministries
At Metropolitan we equip our ministries to work toward the goal of the entire church: to equip believers to obey the Lord's command to go and make disciples of all people everywhere. Adult, youth, and children's groups strive to know God and share His love by serving people.
See the list of ministries to the right to find your place to minister, or be ministered to. As always, please feel free to contact the church office if you need information that you are unable to find here.

Financial Peace University
Sunday, September 07 6:00 PM
Have you ever wondered where your money is being spent? Do you hate the thought of creating a budget, let alone using one? How are you with credit cards? Do you know how to improve your credit report? For the average person, it seems that we spend more than we make and the idea of using a budget or even giving up a credit card can be a nightmare. If you fall in to this category, what about going through Dave Ramsey’s Financial Peace University this fall at MBC? No matter what your level of understanding of money might be, you will learn something that can help you in everyday life.
The class begins Sunday, September 7. We will be using the new, updated curriculum.
