We hope to see you and the whole family at MBC for our 2025 Christmas Eve Eve and Christmas Eve service times. This year, we will be having one service on 12/23 at 7pm and two services on 12/24 at 4pm and 6pm.
On Friday, January 16 at 6:30pm MBC will be hosting “Night of Revival 2026”.
At this event there will be worship, a message, and some time for prayer. We are also encouraging people to invite friends, family, and neighbors who are both saved and unsaved to the event so that they might get to experience the love of Christ and hear the word of Christ proclaimed!
We hope you join us for Night of Revival 2026.

For many, the Christmas season is a time of joy and celebration—but for others, it can also be a time of grief, loneliness, or difficult memories. Our Blue Christmas Service is a quiet, reflective gathering designed to offer comfort and hope to those who are hurting during the holidays. Through Scripture, prayer, and music, we’ll remember God’s promise to be near to the brokenhearted and to bring light into our darkness.

Who?
Everyone who went through Christianity Explored, and anyone else who would benefit from looking closely at the foundations of our faith, particularly as laid out in the book of Galatians.
How?
A workbook, and a brief assignment each week.
What’s Faith Explored about?
In the New Testament book of Galatians, the apostle Paul begins by reminding the church in Galatia that there is only one gospel. He ends by urging them to “keep in step with the Spirit.” What are some practical ways we can do this? As new believers or even more mature Christians, how do we grow in faith and learn to demonstrate the fruit of the Spirit?
This 8-week Sunday school class is designed for those new in the Christian faith or still exploring the faith, although all are welcome. Prior Bible knowledge is not required, and questions are encouraged! We will read through the book of Galatians at a slow pace, with a bit of homework assigned each week.
Where? And When?
In the Youth & Family Ministry Building every Sunday from Sunday, October 5th 2025 to Sunday November 23rd 2025.
Operation Christmas Child is a project of Samaritan’s Purse, an international relief organization. Their mission is to provide local partners around the world with shoeboxes filled with small toys, hygiene items, and school supplies as a means of reaching out to children in their own communities with the Good News of Jesus Christ. They ship these simple gifts outside the United States to children affected by war, poverty, natural disaster, famine, and disease.
At MBC, we love to participate in OCC! Boxes and brochures are available in the foyer. Drop off boxes at MBC by November 16, and be sure to enclose a $10 donation for each box. You can write 1 check to cover all the boxes you submit, or donate online and check Follow Your Box to track it to its recipient(s). For more info or ideas on packing a shoe box, check out their website here
Collection date is Sunday, November 16.
Contact Lenore Tosi with any questions.
