What is an ABF?An Adult Bible Fellowship (ABF) provides you with an opportunity to be involved, known & loved within MVBC. ABF classes provide opportunities for Bible study, building relationships, prayer & service. In short, they provide you with the chance to grow as a follower of Jesus Christ. ABFs are groups of about 8-100 members who meet together each Sunday. The size of these groups makes interactive learning very effective and relationships easy to form.
