LMC Updates

"We don't do anything, this is all God."

In this video story, Dale Ebersole and Mark Mummert from Mountville Mennonite Church share two stories of the Lord's healing power.

On two occasions Dale experienced injuries/pain and sought the prayers of his church community. Mark, who has had some training in healing prayer, was one who prayed for Dale both times. And each time, Dale found healing from the pains he was struggling with.

Dale and Mark both credit this healing to the power of Jesus, giving the glory to Him!

Listen to their full story by clicking on the video above.

Thank you Brittany Stipe and Mountville Mennonite Church for sharing this story.

Join the Mission of LMC

The LMC community is in a season of growth! Since 2018, we have welcomed 133 new congregations into our conference. Despite this, donations over the years have remained about the same, and are now beginning to decrease. Would you prayerfully consider joining us in being a Spirit-led movement and donating to LMC? We are grateful for the opportunity to continue ministering alongside you.
