Collection Time Now Through Sunday, February 16
We’re excited to participate once again in First Choice’s Baby Bottle Boomerang. Simply take a bottle home, fill it with your spare change and use it as a reminder to pray for First Choice as they serve women and rescue babies. Return your filled bottle to the Welcome Center or the church office by February 16.
We are very excited to roll out our new MBC app!
The Church isn’t a building – it’s people! We want to make sure that everyone can experience the MBC community and stay connected whenever they want.
Our app will expand the way we connect with both new individuals checking us out and those who call MBC their home. Its primary features keep you connected with information and personalized notifications to our various ministries, Sunday morning Live Stream, sermon archives, our podcast, giving access, and up-to-date information on our community activities and events. As a bonus, we also added the Bible for your convenience during the sermons or whenever you desire to connect with the Word of God.
There are three ways to get our app:
1. From your cell phone, text: “mbcnj app” to (833) 683-6726 and a link for direct download will be immediately sent;
2. Or search for Millington Baptist Church on 
or 
.
3. On your computer, you can go here to get the app sent to your phone.
Once you download it, please go to your app store and leave a great review to help others find it easier.
If you have attended our church for any period of time, then you know our mission is to expand the table for the glory of God and to be fully devoted to Christ, our church body and the community around us. This app is merely a small expression of our desire to make those connections and grow the body of Christ.
Stay tuned as new features will be added over time.

Teens | The Rush is a place where students are loved, accepted and encouraged to play active roles in each other’s life stories. Together we engage in transformational experiences that broaden and deepen their relationships with God and each other with the goal of emerging as powerful women and men of Christ. Here teens are mentored by godly leaders who encourage the next generation to step into the roles they have been called to play. We share in each other’s struggles and joys; revitalize our communities; and care for the unwanted, unreached, and unengaged.

Band of Brothers
At Band of Brothers, we aim to cultivate an environment where young men can support each other through fellowship, Bible reading, and prayer. Our goal is to grow in the Lord as we tackle various topics and read challenging chapters of Scripture. We will delve into the deepest parts of our existence because the Lord Jesus is coming back, and we must be ready. Each of us has a divine assignment and spiritual gifts that we intend to discover and embrace. In short, we are cultivating spiritual warriors for Jesus.
Our Goals: Cultivate a Biblical Worldview. Bear one another’s burdens. Confess sins to one another. Adopt a Biblical view of masculinity. Establish biblical character. Till soil where seed can be planted, watered and bear fruit. Establish ourselves in the ways of the Lord.

The teenage years can be some of the most exciting and challenging that we ever face. Here at The Rush, we want to be a place where teenagers will be accepted and loved for who they are as they are challenged to grow in their knowledge, love, and passion for Jesus! We accomplish this through fun and compelling environments on Sundays and Wednesdays, through our retreats, service outreaches, and mission trips. Last summer we took an awesome group of teens to serve and share the love of Christ in Chicago. It was amazing to watch the growth, passion and excitement in our teenagers as they were used by God to reach our world. We desire this for everyone who comes in the doors! We invite you to come and check us out… and jump in with the Rush!
