Ministries
Nursery
Experienced staff and clean nurseries await your little ones for each and every service. Jesus loves the little children and so do we.
Children's Church
Children are precious to the Lord. Every Sunday morning during the eleven o'clock hour, the children ages four through fifth grade attend classes filled with energetic singing, activities, and an age-appropriate Bible lesson. It is the goal of Maranatha Baptist Church that children not only have a safe environment of fun and fellowship, but that they are also encouraged to learn and grow spiritually.
Teens
The Youth Ministry seeks to help teens grow physically, spiritually, and in social interaction with others. We teach our teens how to discern between right and wrong, and to look to the Bible as their final authority. We teach biblical principles and how to apply them to their daily lives. We emphasize the importance of a daily devotional time, church attendance, witnessing and memorization of Scripture. We teach the teens the importance of appearance and right actions and provide many events for them throughout the year that will help them learn how to relate to their peers and enjoy life in a safe and godly environment. We believe that teens should be actively involved in the ministries of the church.
Missions
Here at MBC it is our pray and objective to fulfill Acts 1:8 "ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth." Our commission is simultaneously evangelizing Agawam and the world. Also we are praying that within 5 years that MBC will be a mother church through a church plant in New England!
