Senior Pastor’s Report—Layne Lebo

In November McBIC celebrated its 125th anniversary. In conjunction with this milestone I preached asermon series focusing on McBIC’s past, present and future. Preparing for this series and preaching thesermons, I was reminded once again how blessed our church is to have such deep roots, a vibrant present dayministry and a future we’re anticipating.

As I reflect back over the past 12 months I recognize that much occurred in our life as a church, but I’dlike to specifically highlight 3 things:

McBIC has many significant ministries happening within the walls of our church, but I’m especiallyexcited by the growth I see in our missional communities and by increasing numbers of peopleembracing the mission field God has called them to in their workplaces, schools and communities.

As a relatively young church, McBIC doesn’t often experience many deaths, but we walked through anumber of deaths in 2015 and two of them in particular had far-reaching impact on our church family.Steve Myers—who was instrumental in the start of At The Cross Recovery—died as a result of amotorcycle accident in November. And in December Esther Lenker—a former pastor’s wife at McBIC,long-time prayer warrior and mentor to many—suffered a stroke and passed away. These deathsimpacted me deeply because of the relationships I had with Steve and with Esther.

Mechanicsburg Community Church, which McBIC launched in the fall of 2014, celebrated its 1-yearanniversary in October. It’s fun to watch this church sink down roots and grow under the leadership ofPastor Chad Wenger.

On a personal note, I’ve been asking God for the past year how I can stay involved with individuals andfamilies in our community now that my coaching of my kids’ sports teams is coming to an end. With theencouragement of my friend John Anthony, I ran for a seat on the Mechanicsburg School Board in Novemberand began serving there in December. I’m looking forward to this new challenge and the chance it providesme to interact with the community.

My wife, Greta and our children, Bronte, Treyton and Kerrigan are grateful to be at McBIC. Yourencouragement, friendship and prayers are a tremendous blessing to us. I’m especially grateful for theministry partners I have in Greta, our pastoral staff, our church board and our prayer partners.

I’m anticipating all that our Heavenly Father has in store for us in 2016 and beyond.

Associate Pastor’s Report - John King

I am blessed in so many ways to serve here at McBIC. This past August 6 marked 12 years of pastoralministry here, and every year for me continues to bring new joys and challenges. This past year brought anumber of new changes with ministry life here at McBIC, most notably the pastoral change from Pastor DorisBarr’s retirement at the end of 2014 and the addition of Pastor Susan Vigliano on staff. Susan has been a joyto work with on a regular basis, and I appreciate how our gifts and abilities mesh well as we work together toexpand adult discipleship ministries.

2015 also brought a number of new challenges for me in terms of counseling needs. Fortunately,because of my educational background I have been able to call two different counseling interns to serve atMcBIC through this past year: Stacy Masshardt from Messiah College in the summer term, and CynthiaVanderArk from Shippensburg in the fall term. These two women have been such a blessing behind thescenes at McBIC, providing compassionate counseling care for no charge to those who are in need.

This past year also brought about continued ministry with At the Cross Recovery. I am so deeplyindebted to our ATCR board as we moved this year to be our own organization with a 501©(3) status. Thisministry will continue to grow and expand in 2016. Our meetings continue on Tuesday evenings with anaverage attendance of about 30 people. As many of you know, we also experienced the untimely deaths oftwo people connected either currently or in the past with ATCR: Sara Mishler and Stephen Myers. I alsoconducted three other funeral services for people who passed away because of issues related to substanceaddiction. In all of these stories, it was a blessing to have people from McBIC and ATCR step in and help andsupport those who are in the depths of grief, and for that I am very thankful.

During this past year, we also experienced some transition with leadership of our Adult BibleFellowship Groups. Our new leaders for Abundant Life are Dallas & Faye Shelly and Bill & Libby Shaffer, andour new leaders for the Bereans are Al & Jackie Shover. They have stepped in and served so well for us thisyear. I am also greatly indebted to our other Bible fellowship group leaders: Paul & Nancy Wacker, LaurieOwens, Mark & Marj Swartz, Bob & Betty Lehman, David & Amy Zilka, and Chuck & Pam Arnold. Thesegreat leaders provide excellent care and nurturing to a lot of people connected to McBIC, and I am grateful fortheir service.

I was also encouraged this past year to see the growth and expansion of other missional communitygroups, particularly Our Father’s Hope, a missional community who loves orphans and those who care forthem. Under the excellent leadership of Amy & David Zilka, OFH now has a storage warehouse full ofchildren’s clothing that is being distributed, free of charge, to many different foster and adoptive families infive counties. I look forward to see what 2016 will bring to this new and growing organization.

2015 was also a significant year for our family, especially this past fall as we welcomed an older fosterchild into our home. I cannot count the number of people who prayed for us, who gave us gifts, words ofencouragement and support, etc. We are greatly indebted to you. And even though things did not work outin the long-term, we absolutely know that God was in the midst of all of our decisions to open our home tosomeone in need. By this time next year we expect to have three children in college. Only God knows what2016 will bring for me and my family. Thank you so much for praying and for your ongoing support.

Associate Pastor’s Report – Susan Vigliano

2015 was a significant year of transition for the Vigliano family. After ten years at home with children I re-entered the work force full time. Our prayers were answered regarding a smooth transition for our family. My firstyear as a Pastor at McBIC has been fast-paced, stretching, rewarding, and fun. Because McBIC has been my churchhome for twelve years it felt easy and natural for me to join our wonderful staff. I am grateful to God for theopportunity to serve McBIC. It is a great joy for me to help others connect with Christ for the first time and to helpothers grow in relationship with Christ. We are incredibly blessed to have a healthy church that is consistentlygrowing in intimacy with Christ and walking in mission.Healing Prayer: Dozens of people walked into a deeper journey of healing at McBIC this year:

We facilitated three Healing Care Groups each consisting of 5-7 participants and 2 leaders. Our Healing Care

Groups use a 16-week curriculum from Ashland Theological Seminary to engage people in a foundation for

life-long healing and increased spiritual health.

We continue to serve many individuals in healing prayer through our trained care-givers. Healing Prayer

contributes heavily to the overall health of our congregation.

In June seven women from McBIC journeyed together to Ashland Theological Seminary to participate in the

4-day Formational Prayer Training and Equipping Seminar conducted by Dr. Terry Wardle. This group of

women is now engaged in an extended leaders Healing Care Group for the purpose of deepening their own

journey and preparing to help others.

Corporate Prayer: We launched small prayer teams to provide prayer cover over the following ministries at McBIC.These groups meet in person monthly to pray and connect regarding the prayer needs of each ministry. It is mypersonal goal to eventually see every person, family, and ministry at McBIC covered in regular prayer.

General Corporate Prayer – Cry Out (Thursday), Prepare the Way (Sunday), Prayer Walk (Thursday)

Our Father’s Hope – First Wednesday of each month

Prayer for our missionaries – Second Saturday of each month

At The Cross Recovery – Fourth Wednesday of each month

Peace Promise – First Friday of each month

Youth--First and Second Wednesday of each month

Children – Second Wednesday of each month

Young Adults – First Tuesday of each month

Adult Discipleship: I enjoy a wonderful ministry partnership with Pastor John King. Together in 2015 wesignificantly strengthened our Adult Group Studies. We added several men’s groups, added spiritual practicesgroups and increased the numbers of women’s groups offered. Many of our skilled and passionate teachers werenew to leading Adult Studies this year: Cindy King, Heidi Bert, Amy Zilka, Fred Brown, Doris Barr, Joe Vigliano,Donna Deaven, and Beth Biery. They did a wonderful job.We also strengthened our communication in Adult Ministries. It is now easier to find and share information foradults with five simple brochures: PRAY, SERVE, CONNECT, GROW, and SUPPORT.Women’s Ministry: Women’s Ministry grew in 2015 in both attendance and personal encounter with God at ourannual Women’s Breakfast, Spring Retreat, and the fall You Make Me Brave event. Additionally, a core group ofwomen focused the second half of 2015 on developing a mentoring program for women that will formally launchcongregation-wide in February 2016.

It has been a privilege to serve this congregation in 2015. I look forward to deepening intimacy andembracing mission together next year.

Worship Pastor’s Report - Dave Hershberger

Psalms 100Shout for joy to the Lord, all the earth...For the Lord is good and His love endures forever; His faithfulnesscontinues through all generations.

Each year in preparing this council report it provides a great opportunity to reflect and document thehighlights of the year! It is truly a blessing to serve at McBiC! I deeply appreciate the worship leadershipteam! They have committed to us by their time and sacrifice, energy and skill, integrity and vulnerability, andfriendship! While they work hard to be skillful and lead/play effectively, they value personal growth andintegrity as well! Currently, the Worship Ministry leadership team consists of Derek and Melanie Miller, Chris& Sherry Selkirk, Dennis and Sally Weller, Ben and Kristen Slabaugh, Danny and Katy Pratt, Bob and Deb Feil, &Lindsey Armstrong. Bronte Lebo has provided amazing support for youth ministry scheduling! Others havestepped into specific leadership roles as well…Dan Reist on audio and Derek Mauldin on Lighting. I, and theseleaders, would like to express a big “THANK YOU” to each team member as well (instrumentalists, vocalists,sight & sound technicians, & staging crew) for your commitment and partnership! I want to give specialappreciation to Katy Pratt, who has served remarkably well in the worship ministry assistant role. Thank youKaty!!!

While Worship Ministry functions as music and arts, it is VERY MUCH a ministry that serves andsupports other existing ministries. To that end, we try to partner well with kids and youth ministries to makesure their needs are met. From Middle School and forward, worship ministries tries to connect specificallywith young musicians and budding artists to grow skills and understanding of the “ministry of worship”. Wewant these ministries to work in tandem and build upon each other at various life stages! In 2016 weanticipate some fun training ideas!!!

It is also exciting to see the interest building in teams that play in our community. This ministry armallows McBiC members and friends to tangibly connect with each other and with local artists! “Thankyou” toBy The Way (McBiC RBJazz) team members who have practiced a TON and made the big commitment to “playout” together…a pure joy! Other worship ministry team members have played out as well. I look forward tothis ministry developing with more intentionality! Diane Baltaeff provides valuable leadership and support inthis area!

We have been intentional this year to network better with Messiah College events and opportunitiesto experience some growth opportunities! A few examples of this are the Count Bassie Band Orchestra,Frances Drost concert, a guitar workshop and concert, and a Dance Program called Blue Christmas (directed byGregg Hurley/Susan). These programs and ministries keep us more on the learning edge, spark creativity andprovide a personal growth opportunity. I’m looking forward to more in 2016.

Men’s Ministry had a good year as well! Between retreats, monthly breakfasts, HPM, Dad Connection(thanks to John Miller), etc…we have had numerous and fruitful contacts in 2015. John King will be takingover that ministry in 2016. I am excited to see ways in which that ministry will grow through his direction!Thanks so much to Bill Lord and Clarence Gay for serving with me so long….with consistency and passion!

I deeply appreciate the corporate desire at McBIC to grow as worshippers! I urge you to press into Hislove, mercy and grace, and extend that same gift to those around you. We cannot grow without it. I pray foryou often. I beg for your prayers the same way…as I have a lot to learn through my own weaknesses.Blessings, peace and on-going love to you all!

Children’s Pastor’s Report - Dave Truitt

This past year I was reminded of the power of the simple truths we teach in Children’s Ministry every week.As I interacted with a few adults who were struggling with issues like their identity or addictions, I kept tellingthem the same simple truths we teach our children. The fact that I was trying to have these adults grasp thesesame simple, but life-changing concepts highlighted the importance of what we are doing in our Children’sMinistry.

At McBIC, we want every kid to grow up the way Jesus did – “...in wisdom and stature, and favor with God andman.” (Luke 2:52) Nothing is more important than a child’s relationship with God, and there is no greaterinfluence on that relationship than a child’s parent. Let’s face it. Building faith in the next generation takes time.There aren’t going to be immediate results and we want to do whatever we can to help parents with the spiritualformation of their children.

Nursery & Preschool - Clubhouse is a place where children learn to embrace a God who is bigger than theirimagination. We believe in an active, hands-on approach to learning. It is our hope that every child will learnthese three core truths.

God MADE me.

God LOVES me.Jesus wants to be my FRIEND forever.

Elementary Age - a place where kids discover a new understanding of how to grow in relationship with Jesus.Before kids head off to Middle School, we want them to embrace three main truths ...

Wisdom - I need to make the WISE choice.

Faith - I can TRUST God no matter what.Friendship - I should TREAT OTHERS the way I want to be treated.

Power Up (9:30am)- The focus of Power Up is our Small Groups where we want kids to fuel up with God’s Power.We want kids to thrive with the attention they receive from a consistent Small Group leader, to build friendshipsthat will last, and to see how God’s Will fits into their lives.

FX (11am) - a place where kids, parents and leaders can learn together. FX (Family Experience) is a fun,interactive experience filled with active worship, crazy teaching, and live actors. We call it FX because our goal isto partner with parents, and what better way to do this than to have everyone in the same room, learning thesame stuff!

I am blessed to serve as McBIC’s Children’s Pastor. I love ministering with the many wonderful people (about100 each week) who love ministering to kids as much as I do. One of the exciting things I’ve gotten to do about10 times this past year is doing assemblies or programs at Elementary Schools. I love being able to help schoolsin the character development of the children and it allows the McBIC kids an opportunity to share their faith withtheir friends when they say how they know me. I feel so privileged to be on McBIC’s staff and I thank everyonefor their prayers and support.

Preschool Director’s Report - Sarah Brickner

The past year in preschool ministry has been great! Since last year’s remodeling and painting, most of

our efforts this year have been put into adding a few decorations to the classrooms. We also, have an

awesome, consistent group of volunteer leaders who are devoted to the children and families of McBIC.

At the beginning of 2015 the state laws changed and it required all staff members and volunteers

working with minors to have three different clearances, as well as become a mandated reporter. Dave Truitt,

Jason Kleese, and I worked to recreate our “Child Protection Policy” in order to meet the guidelines of the new

laws. Every volunteer within children and youth ministries had to retake the Child Protection Policy training

session to understand the new requirements. The laws are in place to keep the children and teens in our

ministry safe, as well as keep our volunteer leaders away from any possible risk or accusation. Our new “Child

Protection Policy” is designed specifically for our church to be the safest possible environment for them.

I mentioned earlier about how wonderful our team of volunteers are. They are truly such a blessing to

our families and the children each week. Each volunteer shows traits of passion, responsibility and care. They

keep our children safe, as well as build relationships with them and welcome them every time they walk

through the door. Although our preschoolers are young, our volunteers are making a lasting impression on

their lives and in their faith journey.

I am so thankful for the opportunity to serve as McBIC’s Preschool Director.

Youth Pastor’s Report – Jason Kleese

Thank you all for your prayers and support in our youth ministry. This past year has been just as exciting aswe had the opportunity to see God move through teens and witness those who have accepted Christ orrecommitted their lives to Christ. The desire they teens have to grow deeper and strengthen their relationshipwith Christ is truly a Spirit led movement. As we continue looking forward to develop ways to engage with thecommunity, here are some highlights of 2015:

Both M.S. & H.S. ministries have engaged in community involved events

o Fast For Freedom - A student led event which donated money to missional communities as theteens fasted, prayed & completed service projects around the church facility.

o Ask The Lord - Community Prayer Walks - Teens obediently listened for God’s direction to prayfor various members around Mechanicsburg.

o Christmaspalooza - an outreach event for teens to invite friends and enjoy music, dessert andgames while donating food and gifts to New Hope Ministries. This year we donated over 800lbsfood and gifts to New Hope Ministries.

o Various small groups have also - Volunteered for Operation Wildcat, Foster’s Closet, SupportedOperation Christmas Child, Adopted a Mechanicsburg family for Christmas, served at New HopeMinistries and other ministries throughout the year.

We tackled (and continue to tackle) some challenging series topics that our teens face as Christians,preparing them as loving servants of Christ.

Thirty of our high school youth and leaders went to Guatemala in July - where we were able to serve aschool in the jungle, and pray in the villages, orphanages and hospitals. It has truly been amazing to seeGod move through us and how our obedience glorified His Kingdom in ways we will never imagine.

Twenty-eight of our middle school youth and leaders went to Blue Knob, PA to serve various families inneed of home improvement/repair. As they served and built relationships with the community in BlueKnob, many of the youth were able to meet Christ in a powerful way.

So much more develops individually in the youth and leaders who mentor them. God has blessed me witha great team of youth leaders investing and mentoring their small group, the support of the parents and howthey raise their children and volunteer in our ministry, the awesome youth who dedicate their time for Jesusto learn and grow spiritually, and the prayers and support of the church family. I look forward to what God hasin store for our ministry in 2016.

Thank you and God bless,

Mechanicsburg Community Church Pastor’s Report – Chad Wenger

2015 was the first complete year at MCC. We have had many firsts: our first Easter service, our firstsummer together and our first anniversary celebration this past October. Exciting things continue to happenat MCC! We are blessed with an incredible team of leaders and volunteers. I am so thankful for each of themand their partnership together.

This past fall we were able to host a community movie and game night at the Middle School. We hadbeen talking about doing an event like this for a while, so it was incredible to see it come together. Weplanned expectantly for 200-250 people, but we were blown away by the response. Based on our estimates,we believe 400-450 people participated in the event! It was a great opportunity for us to bless the communityand introduce people to our church. I was so grateful for our team throughout this night, as it took theinvolvement and leadership of many to make it run so smoothly. We hope to do more events like this in thefuture. Our prayer is that through events like this and our personal connections in our neighborhoods,workplaces, schools, etc. that we would be a welcoming community who invites people to ultimately meetwith Jesus and experience life transformation.

Throughout 2015, many new people have visited MCC and become a part of our community. We haveseen more people get involved in our MCC groups (small groups) as well as find opportunities to serve in ourchurch. We have seen people grow spiritually through taking the step of salvation, making commitments toserve and teach, and using their gifts and creativity. During our Psalms series this past November, wededicated an entire service to using various creative elements (spoken word, writing, art, dance, etc). Wehave also been intentional to find ways to include children in the life of our church. I love seeing people stepout in their gifts and get involved in new ways!

In the fall of 2015, I laid out our vision as a church to “take the next step”. I challenged each of us totake steps in our faith in the following three areas:

Deepening our relationship with Jesus

Serving and ministering in the community around us and in our world

Developing deeper relationships and connections within the body of Christ.

I believe God will do incredible things both in and through us as a community as we pursue these nextsteps! We are also planning to start the year in 2016 with our first baptism service. I’m looking forward tothis opportunity to see people take this next step in their walk with God by publicly declaring their faith inJesus Christ.

It is exciting to provide another open door in the community where people can connect with Jesus andexperience His life change! As time passes and our community at MCC grows, I have become increasinglyaware of the blessing it is to be covered by McBIC. We are so thankful to our McBIC family. We greatlyappreciate your prayers, encouragement, and continual support. We are blessed.
