About the MCMA

The Macon Christian Ministerial Association (MCMA) is an interdenominational organization of like minded Churches committed to follow Jesus.

Our desire is to build relationship between pastors and church leaders so as to have maximum impact in reaching the community of Macon County for Christ.  MCMA membership is comprised of local pastors, church leaders and non-profit charitable organizations.

 
     We meet monthly for encouragement, networking opportunities, lunch and a relevant message.  Annually, MCMA organizes a couple of community events, The National Day of Prayer in the Spring and the HOPE project in the Fall. If you are a pastor, church leader or ministry provider and would like to be a part of the MCMA please contact info@themcma.org.
