Each Sunday from 10:00 – 11:00 AM in the Library the class covers one to two chapters from the Bible. The class alternates between an Old Testament Book and a New Testament Book. Led by experienced teachers, no preparation for the class is necessary and participants are invited to attend any week. Our general format is to read and discuss the material several verses at a time, and all guests are invited to ask questions and participate in the conversation. An excellent introductory class for the inexperienced Bible reader, feel free to attend any week before our regular service at 11:00 AM.
So to begin this journey, this walk through the Bible, the class will begin with the Book of Ruth.
Then when Advent starts in 4 weeks, yes the Christmas season is only weeks away, the class will begin the Gospel of Luke with its story of the nativity of Jesus just as we all begin to prepare ourselves for our upcoming season of joy.
Feel free to join this class at any time. The class is held in the church library.

For the past several years, MSPC has partnered with:
to provide support to the schools and families.
A fellowship of ladies that meet Wednesdays, from 9 a.m. to noon in Room 135 at church, making dolls and stuffed animals of all shapes and sizes. The dolls are distributed to needy persons in hospitals, nursing homes, orphanages, and at Christmas to families specified by Social Service Agencies. The soft dolls ministry produces almost 1000 dolls each year!
Pass It On, which was established over 35 years ago, is the only local all-volunteer food pantry in Miami-Dade County. Food is distributed on an emergency basis to those in need-many times while they await public assistance. On the first Sunday of every month, we collect canned and non-perishable food for Pass It On. You can find a list of items on their website: https://passitonministries.org/pages/donate. Donations can be placed on the Pantry Collection table in the church breezeway.
Café Justo is a coffee grower cooperative based in Salvador Urbina, Chiapas, Mexico – a ministry of Frontera de Cristo. They market a pure, organic coffee that is grown, harvested, and marketed in the spirit of justice.
Their goal is to employ members of the community, in the agricultural, production, and management/administrative roles, to create sustainable local business. This provides incentives for people to remain in their family lands.
Café Justo’s mission is to deliver the highest quality, organic, environmentally conscious, fresh-roasted coffee to customers at a price that is fair and just.
Prayer partners are available after worship for individual prayer needs. If you need a special prayer after worship, you can find one of our partners by the bell tower outside of our Sanctuary, wearing a red carnation. They would love to pray with you – be it a prayer of thanksgiving, adoration, confession, or intercession.
Your financial support upholds the ministries and missions of MSPC and makes a difference in the lives of so many, young and old, near and far.
