Men's Ministries

Men’s Prayer Breakfast – On the first Saturday of each month (Sept-June), the men of Marsh Corner share a delicious breakfast, personal testimonies and devotions, and opportunities to pray for each other. This is a great place for men to get acquainted!

Men’s Bible Study – Throughout the year, we offer various studies specifically for the men of Marsh Corner. Some of these studies are topically-related, and some are focused on studying specific books in the Bible. Either way, the studies are always geared towards helping you grow in your Christian walk.

Special Events – From time to time, we gather a group of men to attend a Bible conference together…sometimes in the neighborhood…and sometimes it’s a weekend away. Always, it’s a time of learning, growing and fellowship with your brothers of Marsh Corner!



*You are always welcome to bring a guest to any of our church studies or activities!

Women's Ministries

Women’s Ministry at Marsh Corner Community Church provides an opportunity for women to be encouraged in their faith, as they seek to grow in their personal relationship with the Lord. Women’s Ministry also seeks to encourage woman-to-woman relationships, including mentoring and outreach which is commanded in Titus 2:3-5. God’s Word is the central focus of all activities and studies.

We believe that God has a purpose for each woman…young, middle-aged, seniors, single, or married and we seek to provide ministries to help women find their God-given purpose, based on His Word.



This ministry includes:
Bible Studies – for targeted life stages, as well as mixed-age studies (which will provide opportunities for mentoring). The ultimate goal of these Bible studies is for women to gain knowledge of God’s Word, and then apply it to their everyday lives.

Moms & Tots – This is a time for mothers and their children (infant through pre-school age) to come together for a time of Bible stories, singing, interactive play, craft, and snack for the kids ~ as well as some much-needed time of fellowship and encouragement for moms of little ones! This group meets the first Tuesday of each month.

Mom’s Night Out - During this time, mothers of children (infants through teens) get together to spend a night out in fellowship, sharing some goodies, and chapter review. Each fall, a new book is selected for the group, with a chapter (sometimes two) discussed during each month’s meeting. This is a very casual group/discussion. Friends and visitors are always welcome at any time to join in the discussion (or just take it all in!). This group typically meets the third Thursday of each month.

We break for summer, with a special ‘summer book’ announced at the final spring night out. All women (& their friends) are welcome to participate, as well as join us for the ‘Summer Book Review’, which takes place in August.

Many social events are planned for women of all ages, to encourage women to reach out to family, friends and the community with the goal of reaching the lost for Christ. Women’s Ministry also seeks opportunities for women to serve each other as they discover their God-given gifts.

Senior Ministries

The church has an active ministry for senior citizens called Senior Saints. We meet each month (Sept-June) for luncheons or special outings, enjoy delicious meals, share devotions from God's Word, and pray for one another. Each year a special overnight trip is planned for our fellowship and spiritual encouragement. Our seniors also actively serve one another by helping out at monthly meetings, sending cards, calling, or visiting one another to help encourage.

Deaf Ministries

The purpose of the Marsh Corner Community Church Deaf Ministry is to offer opportunities for the Deaf of the Methuen area (& beyond) to experience worship together in a friendly environment where truths of the Bible are shared. These truths are shared both through classroom teaching and interpreting of regularly-scheduled church services. We welcome you to join us in any of the opportunities listed below.

Youth Ministries

Youth Group

Our Jr. & Sr. High Youth Groups (7th - 12th grade) are very active! Each Sunday morning they meet at 9:15 for Sunday School. They work through interactive lessons in which Biblical principles are taught and applied. The youth group also gets together for social events each month, goes on missions trips, leads Sunday evening services, and has a blast living for the Lord as teens!

AWANA

Awana Clubs is a worldwide youth ministry for children in kindergarten through grade 6. Both the ‘Sparkies’ (K-2) and the ‘Truth & Training’ (grades 3-6) groups meet each Wednesday from 6:30-8:10 p.m. during the school year. Awana involves study lessons, Bible memorization and recreational activities during club time. Join us!

We believe that Jesus is the answer to every child’s (& adult’s!) needs, and Awana will help build a Biblical foundation that will help your child follow Christ through to adulthood. Awana places an emphasis on Scripture and practical life application. Clubbers are encouraged to develop and deepen their relationship with Jesus. Awana promotes teamwork, goal-setting and character-building. Activities include hiking, swimming, Grand Prix racing (pine box derby) and competing with other area churches in programs such as the Awana Olympics and Bible Quizzing.

Nursery

The nursery provides care for children from birth to kindergarten.

• Infant nursery room (birth-12 or 18 months, depending on # of infants)
• 18 month - 3 year old room
• 4 & 5 year old room

Adults and teens from our church family who have completed a CYWO (Children & Youth Workers Orientation) training class staff these rooms. The rooms are staffed by two people ~ usually an adult with a teen helper, or multiple adults if needed, based on the number of children.

The infant nursery room is equipped with cribs, swings and safe toys for little ones to use. We also have the necessary diapers and baby wipes to attend to our babies.

During Sunday morning service, our 18 month - five year olds spend time listening to a Bible lesson, singing songs and doing a craft, typically related to that day’s Bible story.

Healthy snacks are provided for the children, as well as juice or water.

We also offer child care in our nursery room the second Sunday night of each month at 6:00pm during the evening service. Children up to kindergarten age are welcome.

Children’s Church

Children's Church takes place during the 10:30 a.m. church worship service. During this time, the children gather together for Bible lessons, praying, singing and worshiping together with other children their age. The emphasis of the Children’s Church hour is on worship, while during the Sunday school hour the emphasis is on instruction. This is an interactive, lively and fun time!
