Serve with City Relief|City Relief (www.cityrelief.org) consists of two former school buses now customized into mobile resource centers to help the poor and homeless. Friendly faces serve up food and love demonstrating genuine care. This allows volunteers to discover other needs and then connect people to resources and faith-based programs which often transform lives and in many cases actually save lives.
City Relief provides a first step to freedom and new life for those in great need. Volunteers from MBC help prepare the food and then go out on the City Relief bus to Newark, Harlem, and the Bronx on a regular basis – either monthly or more often.
MBC will serve on with City Relief bus on the first Friday of the month. We welcome minors to serve but they must be accompanied by an adult.
Contact Dave Springer or text him at 908-331-0569 with any questions.
MBC’s guest speaker is Josiah Haken, VP for Outreach Operations for The Relief Bus. Josiah’s Sermon entitled A Seat at the Table is based on Luke 14:1-11.
Hear about our friend Sarah’s relationship with New York City Relief, and her journey away from homelessness and into wholeness.
MBC Kids Care Packages, 2018
There are many who describe the record number of people sleeping in NYC and NJ shelters, in parks, in train stations, and bus terminals, as a problem that needs to be solved. City Relief doesn’t exist to solve problems, but to love people.
NY City Relief converted two school buses into mobile outreach centers that go directly to those who are most vulnerable, lonely, and hurting to provide a meal, new socks, toiletries, and connections to resources that offer a way out. Week after week, rain or shine, the Relief Bus throws a party on the sidewalk for anyone and everyone with a very simple message:
“God has not forgotten you. You are not alone. Tomorrow can be better than today.”

The Morning Edition
Romans 1-7; The Gift of God by Timothy Keller
Tuesday Mornings, 9:30am, YFMB
We want to be right in the eyes of the law of our land, of those we respect, of our loved ones, of those we work with. We strive to gain and then keep this right standing.
But there is another, far better and more important righteousness. A righteousness which changes and liberates every aspect of our lives, and yet which none of us can earn or maintain ourselves. It s a righteousness from God.
Romans 1-7 is all about that righteousness. It shows us why we don’t have it, why we need it, and how we can receive it. It thrills us that the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord (Romans 6 v 23).
These seven studies will help you to understand one of the most-read, most written-about parts of the Bible. And, as they enable you to you unwrap God s precious gift of right standing with him, they ll transform your hearts, lives, identities and perspectives.

What is the deep cry of your heart? The ache in your soul that keeps you up at night? The prayer you keep repeating? Jesus not only cares about this deep, spiritual wrestling, but He also wants to step in and see you through it.
Join Lysa TerKeurst on the streets of Israel to explore the seven I AM statements of Jesus found in the Gospel of John. Through this interactive, in-depth study we will be trading feelings of emptiness and depletion for the fullness of knowing who Jesus is like never before.
The workbook is $15, payable by cash or check. Please invite your friends to come. Contact Irm Smith (908-397-3128) with any questions.
MBC 2024 Annual Business Meeting Wednesday, March 19thOur Annual Business Meeting is an important time for our church as we celebrate all that God is doing ...
Topic: “Job – A Story of Unlikely Joy” by Lisa Harper.
Joy is the constant companion of the woman who trusts in the Lord. And while you can find it in friends, family, and circumstances, unfailing, persistent joy will only ever overflow from your relationship with Jesus. Just ask Job, the man from Uz who clung to God’s goodness while all his worldly joys were stripped away. But how is it possible to hold onto such joy in times of sorrow? In this 7-session study, discover the redemptive facet of Job’s suffering. Learn to view pain as a way to strengthen your faith, point others to the gospel, and trust in the Lord. Because His providence will never take you to a place where His grace will not sustain you.

The Men’s Ministry is calling all MBC men and their sons to join us on Saturday, March 9th at 8:00am in Fellowship Hall for a time of fellowship, worship, and encouragement at our next Men’s Ministry breakfast.

At our upcoming breakfast we will have the opportunity to hear from two of our brothers in the Lord and witness how God pursued them and restored them into a relationship with Jesus Christ. Our brother Amit Nihilani will be sharing the testimony of God’s grace and mercy in their lives.

What is Stand Courageous?
Where can men, husbands, and fathers find a model of manhood, leadership, and strength in a culture of gender confusion? We need men to be men, tough with compassionate strength, bent toward justice without compromise, locking arms and standing. We need to be the men God created us to be; warriors for all that is right, true, and just.
Stand Courageous is a ministry that seeks to help men develop a strong biblical character, cultivate positive habits, build and rebuild relationships, and make commitments that will move men closer to God’s good purpose and design – men who will Stand Courageous!
We invite you to join us at a Stand Courageous Men’s Conference to discuss critical aspects of masculinity. These conferences are led by men who struggle with the same issues you do, and will invest in unpacking our role as a defender, provider, instructor, and battle buddy so that we can have the generational influence as a “chaplain” inside and outside the home.
