   MoreChurch HistoryA Brief History of Michiana Covenant Church MCC was started by a group of families that were concerned with the lack of Biblical teaching and policies of the local reformed church. At first the group met Sunday evenings at various homes. With the increase in numbers, it was decided the group needed a more formal organization and a larger place to meet. The group was named Reformed Fellowship to reflect their heritage. The next step was to decide which denomination to be affiliated with. Three were selected: PCA, OPC, and CRC. Each denomination sent a representative to talk about the process of becoming a particular church and to answer any questions. Before the vote to decide which denomination to affiliate with, it was agreed that a 75% majority was needed to affirm. The PCA was chosen.On Sept. 12, 1993, we started meeting Sunday mornings and evenings at Ironwood Cr. By Jan. 1994, we had out grown the building at Ironwood Cr. and moved to the Montessori Academy on Day Rd. Wednesday evening prayer meetings were also held at the Montessori building.Another important event in the life of MCC happened in Oct. 1993. We voted to change the name from Reformed Fellowship to Michiana Covenant Church ( PCA ).Representatives of MCC were sent to the Great Lakes Presbytery meeting held Jan. 1994. We were officially approved as a mission work of the PCA. Now the search began for a church planter. From several candidates, Rev. John 'Skip' Gillikin was chosen. The call was approved at the May 1994 meeting of Great Lakes Presbytery. The Gillikins moved here in July 1994. Skip started Elder training classes with the men of the church. Four men were certified and elected to serve as Elders.By Jan. 1995, a larger facility was needed. Faith Bible church building came available on a month to month basis. The Faith Bible church property was up for sale. The property was sold and that meant moving again. In Sept. 1995 we moved to The Children's Carousel Center. In that same year 10 acres were purchased with the anticipation of building a church on that site. Dedication Service was held Dec. 1995. Less
