Women’s Event

by

Friday, May 13, 7pm, YFMB Lower Level

Friends: Forever? For now? Or Forget it! | Join us for a fun chat and laughter and hear from godly women from different decades share what they have learned over the years from friendships with other women. Some of the topics they’ll discuss include:

  • What are some practical steps for healthy relationships?
  • What are the hardest obstacles to building a friendship?
  • What are pitfalls to avoid?
  • What to do with unmet expectations?

Bring a friend and an evening snack to share! All women are welcome, from high school age to one hundred!

 

Questions? Contact Jenn Dowden at (womensministries@millingtonbaptist.org).

Shared Interest Groups

by

Now forming!

What is a Shared Interest Group?

Shared Interest Groups are groups formed around a common goal and are generally informal in nature.

 

What is a Shared Interest Group’s purpose?

Groups are intended to help people to build relationships with each other in a gospel-centered way apart from the Sunday morning worship experience. Groups are created to help people engage with others, both within and outside of the church, in cultural, artistic, recreational, leisure and sports activities.

 

Who should consider joining a Shared Interest Group?

Individuals, small groups, teams or whole communities can join a Shared Interest Group. They  are relevant to people of all different ages, abilities and levels of skill…in other words, there’s something for everyone!

 

Shared Interest Groups are fun, interactive, and designed as great way to get to know others. Participation serves as a valuable supplement toward building biblical community.

 

If you are interested in leading, joining, or suggesting a Shared Interest or Activity group, please fill out this form or email Scott Rajoppi directly at (srajoppi@millingtonbaptist.org).

by

Save the Date! Saturday, May 21, Downtown Basking Ridge

There are several ways you can help. Begin by clicking HERE for a complete volunteer schedule. Place your name in the area of service and time slot you desire. Details will follow as we fill our spots.

Women’s Connections Class

by

Sundays @ 9am, YFMB Great Room - April 3-June 12

Women of all ages are invited to participate in a group study of Colossians on Sunday mornings.

 

Pastor, author and speaker, Paul David Tripp, says he would entitle Colossians, “Jesus at the Center.” Jesus is the ultimate embodiment of the grace of God! 

 

Colossians focuses on the supremacy and the sufficiency of Christ Jesus. Jesus is in every passage and every verse of Colossians. The apostle Paul has one thing that he wants us to know: that there is no gospel apart from His person and work.

 

There will be a rotating schedule of leaders and we will use the Bible as our guide for learning and discussion. Join us as we dive deep into God’s Word and experience His fullness like never before.

Kids entering grades K-6th are welcome to attend our in-person program. 
We’ll be following COVID guidelines and will keep parents informed as we get closer to the week.

 

We have a limited capacity for kids this year, so put your anchor down and register today!

Welcome to Wilderness Escape, our FREE online version of Summer Adventure!

We will be hosting a Zoom session every day for all ages, preschoolers to kids entering 6th graders, where we’ll meet Moses, sing, do crafts, see object lessons and more.

 

Wilderness Wanderer Kits are LIMITED, so sign up ASAP!
This will include some craft supplies, a Bible verse bookmark, a bandanna, a devotional, and more!

Pick up will be Friday, July 10 at MBC, more info to come. Kids can still participate without a kit. Note: preschoolers will need help with crafts, recommended for ages 3+ due to small pieces.

 

Idea: Share your adventure experience with a buddy.
Buddy up with another family to watch and participate together! (as government restrictions allow)

 

Registration closes Thursday, July 9.
Again, Wilderness Wanderer kits are LIMITED so sign up ASAP.
Sign up SOON because we have a Wilderness Wanderer Kit for you to pick up for your kids, but supplies are LIMITED.

 

ONLINE REGISTRATION OPENS JUNE 1, 2020

 

Since we are still in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic, we are pushing back registration until we have more information. Ideally, we would love to have an in-person Summer Adventure program, but we need to await the government’s decisions and recommendations for large gatherings as the summer months approach. At the very least, we would provide a virtual, online experience for the kids. 

 

Please check back here for updated registration information in mid-May (registration date is still subject to change).

    Women’s Winter Retreat

    Restoring our Connection with God...Others...Ourselves

    March 18-20, DoubleTree Hotel, Lancaster, PA

    We are now at full capacity. Please contact the retreat team at (womensministries@millingtonbaptist.org) or call the church office (908.647.0594) if you would like to be put on a waiting list.

    MBC’s Women’s Ministry is excited to invite women to a special weekend of reflection, retreat, rest, and restoration in the heart of Amish Country.

     

    It’s hard out there in the big wide world and often in our own hearts and homes.  If your soul needs a long, deep breath and your hope yearns to be restored, we invite you to explore these gifts that God longs to lavish on you at our women’s retreat.

     

    “I will restore the years that the swarming locust has eaten…” (Joel 2:25)


    “This retreat will mark 2 years since the shutdown. Our hearts have been shattered; but maybe, just maybe, instead of us viewing our hearts as broken apart, we can view them as God providing a space for us where our hearts are broken open…to Him, to others, and to ourselves.” 

    Lodging & Meals: The DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel, Lancaster, PA

    We’ve provided a few different lodging options for you to review and consider before completing your registration. Early Bird = prior to February 16.

    B. Early Bird Single Room: $400, 1 per room, 2 nights. Includes all activities except optional “David” ticket. Register before February 16. (Choose this option if you would prefer not to share a room. Same rate applies.)
    C. Early Bird Pay with Points: I would like to use Hilton Honors or other points to pay for my lodging. I will pay MBC $70.00 for additional retreat cost. (If you choose this option, please provide your Hilton Honors or other points number during your registration process.)
    D. Post Feb. 16 Make My Own Reservation: Will make my own hotel reservation at the hotel’s STANDARD RATE and pay MBC $70.00 for additional retreat cost. (Choose this option if you are making your reservation after Feb. 16.)
     

    *Retreat costs include: Lodging for 2 nights, Friday & Saturday refreshments, Saturday & Sunday breakfast, Saturday lunch. (Friday & Saturday night dinners are on your own.)

    Esther Goetz

    About Esther: I was born and grew up a missionary kid in war-torn Ethiopia.  I now live in rural New Jersey in a house surrounded by perennial gardens where you will find me digging in the dirt or basking in the glory of it all.

     

    When I’m not on a date with my husband of 30 years, I’m writing, watching crime shows, figuring out the cures for all the world’s problems with a friend, or being a mom to four grownish kids and one adorable preschool grandson. 

     

    I have a fierce passion to restore hope for the sacred space where our hearts and our homes meet. This includes faith, marriage and motherhood.

     

    My husband wrote this haiku for me and it’s who and what I hope to be and share with you:

     

    Alive to passion.

    Inside beautiful outside.

    To Christ she is true.
