Meck Community Church – Lake Norm. Campus

I visited Mech Church’s main campus (North of Charlotte) a couple of times. My brother and his family attend. Pastor Jim White’s sermon on Baptism explained and convinced my brother the importance of being baptized by water. After that I began to attend Mechs Lake Norman campus location regularly. Pastor Jim White teaches on a «college level», which makes learning about the Bible God and Jesus’ plan for my life that much more dramatic. The service is held inside the YMCA, and convenient for the Mooresville area. They have an onsite praise service band that leads us in a praise service that I wish would never end.

We’ve been members of another, similarly styled church for the past seven years and started to feel that we’d outgrown our church home. It had become all about growing the church, less about growing yourself and those you come into contact with. A few friends of our are ker-​razy about Meck so we gave them a whirl this past summer. We’ve been fans ever since!
What we love most is the knowledge possessed by Sr. Pastor Jim White. He is extremely well educated and has written a number of well received books. You actually leave feeling like you’ve learned something. We also love his sense of humor (sometimes he’s just so wrong!) and the fact that he doesn’t take himself too seriously. He is delivering a motivational, passionate message in a fun way. If you want hellfire and brimstone, moooove along. If you wang to go knocking on doors, keep going. If you want to learn about being a better person, if you want to be part of local, national and amazing international outreach, stop & sit a while.
Meck Kids, the children’s program, is fun and exciting for kids birth-​5^th grade. The kids play, learn a themed message, sing and dance. My little ones are always excited to go. The staff is all background checked and there is secure check-​in/​check-​out. This is not a typical southern church. This is new school w/​a great band, high energy and and lots of welcoming smiles. If you want a church but are worried about not fitting into ultraconservative, hardcore Baptist/​Methodist/​Catholic churches, give Meck a try. You won’t be disappointed.
Fyi: the main campus is huge, located in Charlotte and has more service times. This location is small, convenient and service is conducted via satellite but the band is live and they have all the ammenities of the main campus. Special events, such as family night (pizza, games, music, etc) are held in Charlotte. Easter is such a big blow-​out that it’s held at Verizon Wirelss Amphitheater.
