Church History of MHC...

David and Shonda Tompkins are the Lead Pastors of Mending Hearts Church in both Stella and Edmond Oklahoma. The church is built upon a strong message and model of leadership and an unyielding commitment to the family. When the people of MHC come together, the enthusiasm for God and to serve is contagious and obvious.

The church was started in McLoud Oklahoma in January of 1994 in the name of Mending Hearts Ministries Church, Inc. The founding Pastors, Michael and Rhonda Lincoln were dedicated to the call God had placed in their hearts. Empowered by the Holy Spirit, the church began to grow and prosper. The congregation grew larger than the building they were in, so they relocated to the building we are in now at 14818 S. Peebly Road in December of 1997.

On February 25th 2003, Pastor Michael Lincoln went home to be with the Lord. He left with Joy in his heart, Power in his life and a strong legacy to follow him! He was an inspiration to us all and is truly missed.

Danny and Tammy Austin came to help the church in November of 2003 and stayed for nearly one year. Pastor Danny taught the congregation that there is no limit to what God can do when he led them through an Easter Service where there were over 400 people in attendance from the community and a full blown piece from News4 . WOW!

Co-Pastors David and Shonda Tompkins joined themselves to the church in February of 2005, continuing the vision given by God to Pastor Michael Lincoln. We celebrated MHC's 15th Anniversary by remembering the good times and casting vision to our future. Our membership has tripled in number since 2005 and we have started a 6-figure building program that is dedicated to our Students and Childrens Ministries. We are in the process of buying some land directly to the north of us for some much needed additional parking and in June of 2011, we opened a second location to MHC in Edmond, OK. That campus is up and running through it's first mile!

Mending Hearts Church exists to reach out to those that have been physically, emotionally, and spiritually hurt or broken and to be an Extension of God's tender mercies and grace.
