Upcoming events.
Men's Event
Men, mark your calendars! We're planning a special event on August 23, and while the details are still being finalized, we wanted to give everyone a chance to save the date.
More information, including the schedule and activities, will be shared soon. We hope you'll plan to join us!
Kids Camp
Kids in 3rd–5th grade are invited to Kids Camp, hosted by Trace Creek Church! This weekend is a fun-filled opportunity for children to grow in their faith, build friendships, and make lasting memories through games, exciting activities, worship, and Scripture.
Think of it as a "mini" version of our older students' church camp—packed with fun while helping kids deepen their relationship with Jesus in an age-appropriate way.
Additional details, including registration, schedule, and what to bring, will be shared as we get closer to the event. We hope your child can join us!
Mercy Group Kick Off
Our Fall Mercy Groups kick off the week of September 13! Mercy Groups are a great way to build meaningful relationships, encourage one another, and grow deeper in God's Word.
Each group meets either weekly or every other week, depending on the group, and includes a time of fellowship, prayer, and digging into Scripture together.
If you're not currently part of a Mercy Group, we'd love to help you get connected! Group sign-ups will be available leading up to the kickoff, and we'll help you find a group that fits your schedule and season of life.
Life is better together—we hope you'll join a Mercy Group this fall!
Youth Holiday World Trip
Our youth are headed to Holiday World for a fun day of rides, water slides, and time together! This is a great opportunity to build friendships, make lasting memories, and enjoy a day of fun before the summer comes to a close.
If your student plans to attend, be sure to register and watch for additional details regarding departure time, cost, and what to bring.
Lord's Supper
This Sunday we will share in the Lord's Supper as we remember the sacrifice of Jesus Christ and celebrate the hope we have through His death and resurrection.
At Mercy Road, Communion is open to all who have placed their faith in Jesus Christ. You do not have to be a member of our church to participate. We simply invite believers to take time to reflect, examine their hearts, and remember the incredible grace of God as we share in this meaningful act of worship together.
"Do this in remembrance of Me." — Luke 22:19
Good Neighbor Car Wash
We're spending the morning serving some of our neighbors by washing the vehicles of the businesses that generously allow us to use their parking lots each Sunday.
This isn't a fundraiser—it's simply our way of saying thank you for their kindness and support throughout the year.
If you'd like to join us, we'd love your help! Whether you're washing cars, drying them off, or simply encouraging others, it's a great opportunity to show the love of Christ through simple acts of service.
