The Davis Family

Partners
Who? We are Barry and Susana Davis and we have been mission partners at MCC for over 20 years.Our vision for Christian education in Nicaragua started partly through our own children’s experience in Christian pre-school; we were also convinced that if the Gospel was going to impact Nicaragua in any meaningful way then preparing the next generation with biblical foundations was well worth the long term investment.Our two grown up children are Joshua who is in the British Army and Esther who is at university in the UK. Where? We are working in Nicaragua. This country is the largest of the Central American republics. Nicaragua can be characterised by its agricultural economy,  history of autocratic government and its imbalance of regional development. Almost all settlement and economic activity are concentrated…

Eve’s Story

Eve’s Story

Testimonies
My Testimony Although my cultural environment was Christian, my parents were non-believers. I was baptised as a baby, but that was only a tradition based on superstition.I did believe in God though, but to me He was some sort of remote person who did not really have any positive personal relationship with me.

The Apostles’ Creed

The Apostles’ Creed

Blog
This Autumn at MCC our main teaching series has been on the Apostles’ Creed. The Apostles’ Creed is a short statement of faith that has been used for thousands of years by Christians around the world to express the foundationalbeliefs of Christianity. The Creed is based on truths drawn directly from the New Testament, written by Jesus’ apostles, hence the name. It summarises our faith in God as Father, Son and Holy Spirit, and invites us to commit wholeheartedly to these beliefs and find our place in God’s big story. Many churches say the Creed each week to affirm their shared faith and help pass on a biblical framework the to the next generation. While sincere Christians sometimes disagree on secondary issues, it is really important we have a good…
