We trace the evolution of a spherically symmetric density perturbation in the MOdified Newtonian Dynamics (MOND) model. The background cosmological model is a $\Lambda$-dominated, low-$\Omega_b$ Friedmann model with no Cold Dark Matter. We include thermal processes and non-equilibrium chemical evolution of the collapsing gas. We find that the first density perturbations which collapse to form luminous objects have mass $\sim 10^5 M_{\odot}$. The time of the final collapse of these objects depends mainly on the value of the MOND acceleration $a_0$ and also on the baryon density $\Omega_b$. For the "standard" value $a_0=1.2\times 10^{-8}$ cm/s$^2$ the collapse starts at redshift $z \sim 160$ for $\Omega_b=0.05$ and $z \sim 110$ for $\Omega_b=0.02$.
