A Night of Prayer and Worship
Join us for an outdoor evening of prayer and worship as we gather to seek the Lord and lift our voices in praise. Together, we’ll make space for intentional, expectant prayer, worship, celebration, and reflection.
In the middle of busy weeks and full schedules, come slow down, turn your attention to the Lord, and seek Him together. Bring the whole family and join us on the patio.
In the event of rain or inclement weather, we’ll gather indoors.

2027 Deacon Nominations Are Open
Deacons play an important role in serving and caring for our church family as we seek to make disciples who live and love like Jesus. These servant leaders demonstrate a heart for God, a commitment to His Word, and a willingness to serve others.
As we prepare for 2027, we invite our church family to prayerfully consider individuals who demonstrate the biblical qualities of a deacon found in Acts 6:1-7 and 1 Timothy 3:8-12.
Nominations are open through Dec. 31. Each nomination must be supported by five church members. Click below to print the nomination form. Complete your form and email it to Delores at delores@firstmckinney.com.
