Ministik Community Church
Ministik Community Church was planted in this community in 1999 and has seen God bless it in numerous ways. It began with a desire to have a church function as the body of Christ in the Ministik community and has always had a very community-minded focus. Shortly after launching, the group of families was able to secure a local community hall and began meeting there.
