Food Court
Maranatha Christian Fellowship partnered with a local food service to serve Sunday lunch in their building. Each Sunday, following worship, the restaurant is available for members. Since it is operated on a non-profit basis it provides good food with prices comoarable to any local restaurant. As a visitor to that church, you receive a guest packet that shares their Philosophy of Ministry, a daily devotional booklet and a ticket for lunch at the Maranatha Sunday restaurant - free of charge. Many take advantage of that opportunity, and when they do, they meet friendly members seeking to develop relationships. Even though the second dinner isn’t free, many people return to church because of those relationships. The church is reaching out and the congregation is growing.

This is something I would love to start at my church. Where can I learn more about this Ministry?

We have been trying to set up a “back to basic” village enterprise that will lead non-believers to acknowledge Christ as their Lord and Savior in East Malaysia for about 10 years now. We found that it is easier said than done. We are inviting Christian participations from various denominations. Thank you. God bless you all.
