     Muddy Creek Mennonite Church was the second Hope Mennonite Fellowship (HMF) congregation to be formed. The first HMF congregation was established at Millbach and later moved to Schaefferstown. The Muddy Creek congregation formed from HMF members living in northern Lancaster County who attended Millbach. The first service on January 3, 1982 was attended by 137 people at the Grace Chapel, a vacant church building rented from the Lutherans. There were 21 charter members. Earl Horst served as bishop, Edwin Gehman and Harold Herr as ministers, and Elvin Horst as deacon.

     In 1991 the Muddy Creek congregation purchased a six-acre tract of land near Fivepointville, Pennsylvania and built a school there. In 1997, a church building was erected and attached to the school building. The school offers grades one through twelve.
     The Muddy Creek Mennonite Church is about three miles from the Muddy Creek Old Order Mennonite Meetinghouse that is part of the Groffdale Conference.
     Visitors are expected and welcomed! As you have opportunity please stop by and join us in worship!
