Murrysville Community Church (MCC) is a growing, multigenerational church located 25 minutes east of downtown Pittsburgh.
As a community of gospel hope we exist to worship God for His glory and witness to His grace.
With many young families joining our fellowship over the past several years, we are looking for a pastor or director to join our ministry staff and volunteers in assisting parents in the discipleship of our covenant children. We especially need help growing our middle school and high school ministry as we have an ever increasing number children joining these age groups over the next several years.
