## **MCF Life Church Annual Report 2020-2021** 

MCF Life Church continues to Minister on a regular basis in the Youth Offenders Prison, the local hospital and the schools in both Meriden and Coleshill. MCF Life Church also works with other church fellowships in Coleshill and the surrounding area to minister the gospel and has recently prayer walked Hampton-in-Arden with a view of taking the gospel there. 

We meet ecumenically in the village of Knowle at a meeting called The Filling Station on the first Monday of each month except in August and December.  This has been operating for nearly six and a half years but was stopped during the Covid-19 pandemic from April 2020 to August 2021 and restarted on 2[nd] September 2021. These meetings are always well attended. 

During lockdown MCF Life Church has been coming together via WhyPay and Zoom on a Sunday evening and in the week for its various meetings and held its first meeting for people to come together on Saturday 25[th] September 2021. 

We continue to support other charities in the UK and around the world, as well as reaching people with testimonies and the gospel globally through weekly blog articles on our web site. 

2020/2021 has been a challenging time for MCF Life Church as well as other fellowships, but we have used this time to draw closer to God individually and as a fellowship. Whilst there have been many challenges there have also been many blessings and we look forward to see where God takes us next.
