Connecting people into a vital relationship with Jesus.

It has been a great year living out our mission to connect people in vital relationship with Jesus. As we have lived out our mission, our vision has grown and we have become passionate about tipping our South Valley culture toward Jesus. In this culture shifting, Jesus-connecting work we are doing, we are all called to steward our resources toward God's Kingdom work individually and corporately. This is our year end report to you, letting you know some stories and statistics around God's movement in and throughout our church. We hope to provide continued transparency around how we use the resources God has blessed us with through you.

THE IMPOSSIBLE.

Our potential for growth was limited at the end of summer 2016. In October 2016, we successfully launched Saturday night services and immediately doubled our capacity to invite friends and neighbors to meet Christ with us at MHBC. So many of you have stepped in to lead kids small groups, student ministries, greet on the courtyard, help people in the auditorium and lead in worship. Our church, through God's work in us, accomplished the impossible.

Over 100 attenders became volunteers.

Over the past year, God has blessed us tremendously. He continues to provide for us the resources and ministries we need to continue our mission to connect people into a vital relationship with Jesus. Because we plan our annual budget based on the previous year's income, we take a direct lead from God's provided vision and look forward to the new year. This last year has allowed us to dream big for the coming year. We can't wait to see how God provides.

The following numbers here are intended to give a picture of how we steward God's provision. Also, staffing expenses are spread through the ministries based on the year's committed staff hours.

Develop a plan to have facilities which help us to tip the culture of the South Valley toward Christ.


3

Strengthen our leadership culture and become a church which develops leaders for the Kingdom in our church and in the world.

Further development of our local mission impact through the formation of a local mission team, which will begin to structure serving opportunities for those wishing to step in and step deeper into discipleship here at MHBC.


5

Develop partnerships with like-minded churches in the South Valley to tip the culture of the South Valley toward Christ.
