MCC of Albuquerque

Every PRIDE the MCCA Church and the Reverend Judith Maynard offers same-genderlng loving couples an opportunity to get “married”  at PRIDE.  While your “Holy Union” is not legally recognized by the State of New Mexico or the Federal Government, we believe that God honors your relationship.

Each couple will receive a Certificate, sparkling cider punch and a wedding cupcake.  Albuquerque PRIDE is generously providing a space for your ceremony with two attendants (or more) and friends and family.

You can register online at www.AlbuuquerquePRIDE or www.MCCABQ.com.    Be sure to purchase your entry tickets in advance.  Decide on a time you want to be wed:  12 noon – 4 pm Saturday, June 30th.  Rev. Judith will provide couples with sample vows and ring exchanges, or you can say your own vows!

You can also reach Rev. Maynard at 505.268.5252 to schedule your appointment.  PRIDE links us together!  Link with your partner at Albuquerque PRIDE!

Beginning in May there will be a sermon series on forgiveness.  Why forgive someone who has wronged you?  How?  Does it  make a difference to forgive?  What are the blessings from forgiving?

We will have two groups which will meet to follow-up on the series, one that meets during the day and another in  early evening.  Groups will meet for 45 minutes to an hour.  Call Pastor Judy to register or for more information.

The MCCA Annual Yard Sale is one of our largest and most successful fundraisers.  This year the event will take place on Friday, May 18th and Saturday, May 19th.

We need your “stuff” – household items, appliances, knick knacks, clothing in good condition, furniture, tools, books, and other items that you no longer use or want but could be a great find for someone else!

We need volunteers to staff the event and help sort and price on Thursday, May 17.  Contact Andy for more information.
