Maranatha is also our church — a caring…sharing…community church — and for very good reason. My family and I have never seen a group of believers more eager to offer themselves in service to Christ,moreover, to willingly and cheerfully assist others in carrying their physical and spiritual burdens. And, we are community in that our people come from all over the Houghton County area.
Maranatha, admittedly, does not offer a lot of “programs,” however, we are a ministry where every believer willing to be involved in building the Kingdom of God has an opportunity to make a meaningful contribution.
At Maranatha, we enjoy music, from the old hymns of the Faith to Southern Gospel and contemporary.
At Maranatha, we believe strongly in the authority of the Word of God (i.e., the necessity of sound doctrine), but we are also committed to unity in the body of Christ (i.e., cultivating a non-sectarian focus).
Above all, at Maranatha, we seek to lift up the name of Jesus, to encourage Christians in their walk with Him, and to bring the message of the gospel to a lost and dying world.
If you do not already have a church home, stop by for a visit on Sunday or Wednesday at our easy-to-find location on US Highway 41 between Houghton and Chassell, about 3 miles south of the Michigan Tech campus.
