About KMF
Our Congregation
We emphasize following Christ in daily life, serving those in need, and working for justice and peace. We’re a fairly small group, so we’re able to focus on caring for one another, sharing joys and concerns, and holding each other in prayer. We think it’s important to not only worship together but also to have time to connect with each other, so we enjoy snacks or meals together every Sunday. Our congregation has members of all ages, including young families with kids. We welcome persons of all faiths and backgrounds!
In Our Own Words
“We keep coming back because we LOVE this community, and it’s great to have fellowship and snacks and be able to chat and know everyone intimately as well. That’s really special.”
“We’ve been attending here [almost two decades], and it strikes me how many times KMF has changed and reinvented itself... There’s so many churches that are like, “No, this is the way we do things...” And it’s refreshing to see how many times we’ve changed and what changes we’ve been able to just roll with and say, “This is cool.””
“You guys were all so warm and welcoming to us as we moved here. And then when [our child] got sick in April of 2023, that was probably the hardest time in my life... One of the things that kept me going through all that was knowing that you guys were praying for us and thinking about us during those times. We just really appreciate it. We’re happy that [our child] is healthy again.”
our pastor
Our interim pastor is Monica Miller. She’s a bit of an Old Testament geek, and she’s proudly disabled. A lover of all things pie, she’s also no stranger to a prank or two.
Monica brings experience serving in diverse congregations across the U.S. from California to Pennsylvania, as well as in Germany. Most recently, she pastored a Mennonite church in Indianapolis, Indiana.
Where are we?
We enjoy the flexibility of renting space without having to tie up our resources with owning and maintaining a building… though that means we might be a little hard to find! During the warm months (typically April-October) we meet outdoors in backyards. When the weather cools, we move indoors into rented space. We’ve had the pleasure of renting from Skyridge Church of the Brethren for the last several winters, located at 394 S Drake Rd in Kalamazoo.
“I really like the unique makeup of our church... We are purely a church of the people. It’s nice to have a space to be in, but the people are our identity.”
