Growing Resilient, Biblically Rooted Families for the Glory of God

Our Mission & Vision
Our Mission
MBC’s mission is to grow resilient, biblically rooted families to the glory of God. We provide experiences where guests are renewed in their faith journey with Jesus Christ, connected to others in meaningful relationship and equipped to be the hands and feet of God in their communities.
Our Vision
To be a vibrant partner with the Church in helping to grow resilient, biblically rooted families.
Why It Matters
In today’s world, loneliness, social isolation, anxiety, and depression are all too common. We see the weakening of family bonds and kinship ties as major contributors to these challenges. At MBC, we believe that God’s design for family isn’t just ideal—it’s the solution. By strengthening our families, we help heal a hurting society.
How We Live Out Our Vision
