Ushers

Would you like to help greet worshipers on a Sunday morning?  The Ushers prepare the sanctuary for worship - the lights and mic are readied, bulletins are handed out, Friendship Registers are distributed, offering is collected.  Being responsive to people's needs during an emergency is also important.

                     This is an important way to participate in a vital part of church life

For more information contact Terry or Madge Birch, Usher Coordinators, or just sign up in the Blue Book in Foulger Gallery.

Adult Choir

The music program at MCPC is an important part of the worship experience.

The choir, a group of dedicated volunteers, rehearses Sunday mornings at   9 a.m. before worship.  Special music replaces the choir during the summer months. 

Instrumentalists who would like to offer special music or persons interested in learning more about the Choir are encouraged to contact Harriet Tobin, Music Coordinator.
