Faith, Food, Fellowship: Men of MVCC, join us this coming Saturday, June 2nd, 7:30am in the PIT and start the day and summer off right with this intergenerational event; we've even added real BBQ to this breakfast. Dads, bring your sons to participate, so each generation can interact, build up, and encourage one another. No need to sign up, just show up. Bring a friend or two. All are welcome. **Dads, keep in mind that breakfast entails the meal, a short message, and prayer time, so please consider that when you decide who will accompany you.
