In the Upper Room – Maundy Thursday 2026

by

Thursday, April 2, 7pm, Sanctuary

No Childcare available.

Come and join us for Maundy Thursday 2026! Our service will be at 7pm at MBC and we will be blessed to have another performance this year entitled “In The Upper Room”. We will also be having a time of communion during the night. We hope you can join us. 

Experience the powerful story of Mary, a Jerusalem widow navigating doubt and devotion in David Dunlap’s “In the Upper Room.” As she opens her home to Jesus and his disciples, her private sanctuary becomes the historic site of the Last Supper. Join us for this moving exploration of faith, sacrifice, and the quiet courage it takes to support a divine calling.

Palm Sunday 2026

by

March 29th, 2026 at 9am & 10:45am

Join us this Palm Sunday as we celebrate the triumphal entry of Jesus into Jerusalem and conclude our Resilient sermon series. As Jesus rode into the city, the crowds waved palm branches and shouted, “Hosanna! Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord!” (Mark 11:9). It was a moment of joy and expectation, yet we know the week ahead would test His endurance in ways no one could have imagined.

Palm Sunday reminds us that true resilience is found in Christ. Though He entered Jerusalem as a King, He would soon take the path of suffering for our salvation. 

We will have palms available for everyone to take as we remember this powerful moment in Jesus’ journey to the cross. Come ready to worship, reflect, and prepare your heart for Holy Week as we look to the One who overcame for us.

Hosanna in the highest!

Save the Date! Saturday, May 17, Downtown Basking Ridge

When Love Hurts: Parents of Adult Prodigal Children

Register

Have you noticed distance between your Adult Child and you in recent years? Has your Adult Child gone “No Contact” or cut you off completely? Do you have less communication with your adult child or does it feel like you are “walking on eggshells” when you speak with them? Did you know Social Media/Culture plays a large role in this?

Estrangement has reached epidemic proportions in recent years. If you Google it, you will find that 27% of adult children are estranged from both or one of their parents – that is one in four households. Some research suggests 40% experience one family estrangement.

This new group aims to provide support for parents who are hurting in these situations through group support, discussion, prayer and spiritual discernment.

This group will meet Tuesday nights at 6:30pm at MBC starting 2/17.
