The Membership Experience
Who can join MBC?
Anyone who professes Christ as Lord, who has been or desires to be baptized by immersion, who genuinely desires to pursue Jesus with their whole life, and who will support the overall mission of Monticello Baptist Church.
How do I join MBC?
If you feel led by God to join MBC, we encourage you to speak with one of our staff members. You can arrange a meeting by calling the church office at 706.468.6452.
The Sunday Experience
Do you provide a nursery for children?
YES!  We love children here at MBC.  We have a wonderful and loving team of volunteers in our Children's Ministry Hallway who would love to look after your child while you worship.  Our nursery is designed for children ages Birth to 3 years old.  We also have a Children's Sermon during our worship service dedicated to children ages 4 years of age through 1st Grade.  Afterward, they are dismissed to Children's Church downstairs with Nancy Mitchell, our Children's Ministry Director.  Children ages 2nd Grade and up are encouraged to worship with their families.
Whay should I wear?
You will find anything from casual attire to dress suits and dresses.  We are more interested in getting to know you than we are with what you have on.  The most important thing is that you feel comfortable.
What is the Sunday Worship gathering like?
At MBC, we desire to "Shout with joy to the Lord... Worship the Lord with gladness... [and] Come before him, singing with joy."  Why?  "For the Lord is good...His unfailing love continues forever, and his faithfulness continues to each generation" (Psalm 100, NLT).  You can expect to find on Sunday mornings a loving smile and a kind welcome, a blended worship service that has a mix of new and old, and a relevant message that applies to life.  Ultimately, you can expect to find Jesus here.
Do you have a Sunday evening worship service?
Except for special events/times, we do not have a Sunday evening service.
