MCC of Greater Saint Louis Celebrates First Worship Service in New Home

Nearly 500 people were on hand Sunday, June 21, 2009 as MCC of Greater St. Louis celebrated their first worship service at 1919 S. Broadway. After years of hard work and preparation, MCCGSL opened its doors in the Soulard Community. MCCGSL is a bold and inclusive community of faith that provides a place to call home for all of God's children.
