Parenting Seminar

by

Sunday, November 14 at 12:15 in the YFMB Great Room

Whether we want to admit it or not, our culture has an impact on how we disciple our children and teens. If you’re a parent, grandparent, or ministry leader serving with kids or teens, this will be a thought-provoking and relevant event for you.

 

We’ll dive in together as we learn about cultural undercurrents, or shifts, that may not be as obvious as the big “waves” we always hear about. We’ll watch and discuss a talk from John Stonestreet, president of the Colson Center for Christian Worldview and co-author of A Practical Guide to Culture: Helping the Next Generation Navigate Today’s World.

 

Lunch and childcare provided. Please register online and contact Rachel (rachel@millingtonbaptist.org) with questions.

Risen Motherhood

by

Fall Podcast Series: Starts Tuesday, October 12th, 8pm

MBC “Risen Motherhood” Podcast Group is an online community that gathers weekly to reflect on the gospel-hope for moms with young children. Each podcast is about 20 minutes long and brings gospel truths to everyday topics of motherhood. Partner with us during this season of Motherhood on Zoom every Tuesday, 8pm.

 

“You might think that Scripture doesn’t have much to say about the food you make for breakfast, how you view your postpartum body, or what school choice you make for your children, but a deeper look reveals that the Bible provides the framework for finding answers to your specific questions about modern motherhood.” – Risen Motherhood

Tactics 6 Week Course, A Game Plan For Discussing Your Christian Convictions

In a world indifferent or even opposed to Christian truth, followers of Christ must be better equipped to communicate the timelessness of the Christian faith. But how do you have a conversation with someone who is intent on proving you wrong and won’t accept the Bible as a source of authority?

In this six week video Tactics course, We will navigate how to artfully regain control of conversations, keeping them moving forward in constructive ways through thoughtful diplomacy. You’ll learn how to maneuver comfortably and graciously through the minefields of a challenging discussion, how to stop challengers in their tracks, and how to turn the tables on a question or provocative statement. Most importantly, you’ll learn how to get people thinking about Jesus.

MEETING DATES:

  • Begins Monday, September 20, 6:30pm-8:00pm

Operation Christmas Child, final drop off November 14

by

For more than 25 years, OCC has been collecting shoeboxes filled with gifts and delivering them to children in need around the world. With each box, kids experience God’s love in a tangible way and hear the gospel. 

Our goal as a church is to collect 300 boxes! Would you consider helping us in one of the following ways?

 

1. Do-It-Yourself (DIY) Shoeboxes

Boxes are available at our Sunday morning in-person services. Help yourself to one or more, fill them up, and drop off at MBC no later than Sunday, November 14. Visit the OCC website for gift ideas and packing instructions.


You may also donate $9 per box online*. Be sure to check off Follow Your Box to track it to its recipient(s). If you prefer, you may include one check inside one of your boxes to cover each of the boxes you donate. *The $9 per gift is a suggested donation. This donation is critical for Operation Christmas Child to collect, process, and ship shoebox gifts to more than 100 countries. It also provides for ministry materials.

 

2. MBC Packing Party – Wednesday, October 27, 10am-12pm, YFMB Great Room

 

An alternative to packing your own shoebox is to participate in a group packing party. Sign up to purchase and bring a set amount of one or more specific items. Bring them to the Packing Party on October 27, and assembly-line pack shoeboxes with the items that you and others bring to the party.

OCC Donations Sign-up

Thank you in advance for joining us in blessing many kids around the world in Jesus’ name! Contact Rachel with any questions.
