Elderly & High Risk

If you fall into a category of high risk as it pertains to COVID-19, let us know if we can pick up essential items, groceries, and prescriptions for you. Our care team will leave items at your door for a no-contact delivery. Keeping you safe!

Prayer & Assistance Request

If you have experienced a layoff or cut in hours/pay, we are so sorry! We want to surround you in prayer and support. Mt. Pleasant has a Deacon Benevolent Fund to assist Decatur Township residents with rent and utilities. This fund is made possible by the donations of our church family who give generously to help others in our community. If you need prayer or assistance, please email the church office.
