Maranatha Baptist Church, located at 35 Maranatha Boulevard, is regarded as a central part of the Village. The church was organized in 1976. It provides regular church services and is the site of various Bible conferences and concerts. Daily devotions are conducted every morning at the church. The church helped found two area Baptist churches and in 2000 voted to reopen Sunshine Lodge, which was renamed Maranatha Manor.
Hamman Hall is the Village's fellowship hall. Various community activities, such as dinners and film presentations, take place there. Hamman Hall also has a library.
Maranatha Village has three ponds. The largest one is on the property's northeast corner. It is roughly in the shape of a backward "7." It has a fountain in its northwest corner. Roads and duplexes border its south and west sides. It has a 4.9-acre (20,000 m2) surface area. As an unnamed lake is defined as at least a 5-acre (20,000 m2) surface area, this body is just too small to be considered a lake. A second pond is roughly in the center of the Village. It is basically rectangular. A sidewalk borders this pond's east and north sides. The pond has a 1.2-acre (4,900 m2) surface area. The third and smallest pond is 600 feet (180 m) to the second pond's northwest. It is square and has a 0.7-acre (2,800 m2) surface area.
