Moving Closer to God, Each Other & the Disconnected.
Welcome to Metro
Since 1991, Metro has continued to grow and pursue its vision
to be a church where people want to move closer to God, each other, and the disconnected.
We believe church should be creative, relevant, and involved in the community.

Care & Recovery
Do you have a habit you want to break, a hurt that won’t heal, or a strained relationship that needs repair? Metro can help! We’ve got support groups, counseling referrals, help with next steps and other resources! Contact Pastor Gary for more information.
Volunteer Opportunities
Volunteering on a ministry team isn’t only an opportunity to be used by God, it also a really easy way to meet new people and make this big church feel a little bit smaller. If you would like to learn more about volunteering at Metro, please contact our Director of Ministries, Brett Barron. He would be more than happy to help you find the perfect area in which to serve – one that aligns best with your interests, abilities, and talents.
Small Groups
Small Groups for the winter/spring semester are in full swing! But it’s not to late to join one! This is a great place to talk with others, ask questions, develop relationships, and explore your faith in a safe environment. Don’t miss out on one of the most tangible ways to experience God as He uses others to help you grow in your faith. For more information contact the office at 618-692-9863 or at metrocommunitychurch.com.
