MBC Teens

Rush Hour  | 

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.

Meet With Johnny | Have questions about your faith? Facing challenges at school? Or just want to talk about life? He’d love to meet, listen, and pray with you—whatever’s on your heart. Sign up for a time that works for you, and let’s have a meaningful conversation.

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.

Circle of Sisters

Circle Of Sisters is a group of teen girls from 7th – 12th grade. All are welcome to come. We meet every other week from September to May on Sundays after the second service till around 2pm. We enjoy lunch together, studying God’s word and have a special prayer time. Our focus is on God’s Word and how to live our lives in a manner that glorifies the Father.

Want to learn more? Deirdre Rajoppi (973-769-3348) and Gail Loehr (908-612-2096) lead this group.

Transformed by the grace of God to share Christ’s love to a broken world​.

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!
