The Kilson’s continue to be excited about what God can accomplish through His church, to reach the lost and disciple believers here in the Mini-Cassia area. Their passion is to bring healing to lost and broken people of the world through God’s dynamic vision for His church.
“I love this church, this family of Christ followers coming together to encounter God, and encourage and lift one another up. I believe these are the primary means through which God works in a community to love and redeem it. We are discovering new ways to be used for this purpose here at M4C as God leads us and lights His path for us. As God forms this church and shapes it for a new kind of world I want to be right in the middle of what He’s doing.”
