Come THRIVE with us. Do you feel like your life is on survival mode? Are family issues, finances, or fears pressing down on you? We know exactly what that feels like, too. The needs of our children and community keep rising. Most of our leaders express uncertainty about what we should do. Ideas are many, but solutions are few.
While there are many noble political projects and community initiatives, we believe the ultimate source for transformation is not found in a program but in a Person: Jesus Christ. His love heals. His power frees. His hope restores. He moves people from barely surviving to joyfully thriving.
Come thrive with us. We can't promise all your problems will be erased. But we know beyond a shadow of doubt that fear, guilt, and shame can be replaced by faith, hope, and love through Jesus, the rescuing and redeeming Savior.
90 years ago a husband and wife began a little place of God’s love in the City of Flint, called the Gospel Lighthouse, in what was then known as the Mayfair neighborhood. Their small gathering to help young children experience life in Jesus grew person-by-person and family-by-family into what is now known as Mayfair Bible Church.
Today, we are still all about the Good News in a community desperate for it.
About 40 years ago, God moved us slightly west of our original location. But the epicenter of our mission is still where it all began: Flint and her surrounding communities.
God is creating good news stories all around us.
