Sunday Worship
Christian worship is held every Sunday at 10:30 a.m. We offer a contemporary worship environment that is casual and open to all. We offer special services that follow the liturgical calendar and other worship, Bible study, and retreat opportunities throughout the year.
Pastoral Care and Prayer Partners
MCC El Paso offers free pastoral care to talk about spiritual issues and concerns of our community. All Pastoral Care is private and confidential. We also offer referral to LGBT friendly counselors and service providers. All Pastoral Care is handled by appointment, and all appointments are free of charge.
We also have a group of people who receive prayer concerns via email and pray about those requests. We have a need for prayer partners in our community. Please contact Reverend Kati Houts for more information.
Holy Union and Commitment Ceremonies
MCC El Paso does offer ceremonies of Holy Union to gay or lesbian couples. Our pastor is also licensed to officiate Straight weddings (Holy Matrimony) as well.
The requirements for Holy Union are:
1. Both members of the couple must be 18 years of age or older.
2. Neither member of the couple can already be married to anyone else. If they have been previously married, proof of a divorce or dissolution of union must be on file at the church.
3. The couple must have been together monogamously for at least one year. (If there are special circumstances and this is not the case, please talk to the Pastor).
HIV Testing and HIV/AIDS Ministry
Local agencies offer free HIV testing. Pastoral care is avilable. Call to schedule an appointment at your convenience.
Peacemakers and Community Activities
MCC El Paso offers Peacemakers, a program through which a representative of our church can visit any event, vigil, class or organization.
MCC offers many fellowship and community support activities.
