Men’s Breakfast Relaunch: 
Saturday, June 3rd from 8:00 am – 9:30 am, Fellowship Hall 

Fathers and sons!

We’re excited to be relaunching our Men’s Ministry Breakfast time on June 3rd. Come hear from our panel of Mentors from our Radical Mentoring Ministry.

Radical Mentoring is a special type of men’s small group made up of high-potential young men facilitated by more senior and mature men. The vision is to help younger men live God-centered lives and fulfill their God-given potential.

The mentors will endeavor to share what they have learned about success and failure. Most importantly, they will share what it means to have a vibrant, living relationship with Jesus along the way.

Join us for breakfast and a meaningful time of sharing. For more information contact Craig McLaughlin or Pete Lima or call the church office at 908-647-0594.

Class will be on Sundays at 11am for five consecutive weeks April 26 – May 24 in YFMB 203.

Watch this video to learn more!

We encourage all members to login prior to the meeting so that you can watch Pastor Bob’s pre-meeting instructions video as well as familiarize yourself with the Annual Business Meeting portal.

Most importantly, your participation is essential to this meeting’s success. According to our constitution, first we need 20% of active voting members to attend the meeting to constitute a quorum. Second, of those attending, we need a simple majority vote to both approve the annual operating budget and to elect members to the Board of Elders. Please make every effort to attend and vote.

Our Annual Business Meeting is an important time for our church as we celebrate all that God is doing at MBC and plan for the exciting year ahead. Due to the pressing concerns with COVID-19 and congregating in large groups we are creating a virtual forum in lieu of a live presentation in our sanctuary.

 

We encourage you to watch the meeting presentation, download and review the Annual Report, and participate in the Online Voting that was emailed to every MBC Member. This email covers voting for the church budget for the upcoming fiscal year and leadership positions within our body. The Center will be compiling the votes in order to preserve anonymity.
