Men's Fraternity 
met on Tuesdays, 5:30-7am (not currently meeting)

Welcome Men! We've set aside this space dedicated to keeping you involved in an essential men's ministry - Men's Fraternity.


Participant Testimonials

"Each year Men's Fraternity blessed and touched me deeply, brought me closer in my relationship with God. Each year was specific to my need."  - Rob (41)


"It's help me learn about being good to your wife when I'm older.  P.S. Free doughnuts." - Silas (13)

"Provided the courage to confront issues from my past that were holding me back from living for tomorrow. A launch pad to develop a relationship with real men."  - Chris (42)

"Of all the years, the Great Adventure" meant the most because I now carry a plan; a mission statement. It's no longer passaive, I have goals and am working towards them each day. This year in particular meant a lot."  - Dave (54)

"From my profile of my unique design I now can understand most of the difficulties in my marriage. My wife and I are the extreme opposites ends of the spectrum. I now understand where I stand and am making strong efforts to correct several issues."  - Terry (75)

"It has helped to motivate me towards a better me, to want more for my physical and spiritual life. I have made new friends, that have been a positive impact in my life. This has been a blessing, thank you."  - Bryce (23)

"After thinking more about Men's Fraternity, I've got to say that it's been one place where it is safe to be who I am. I've been involved with men's groups that never got below the surface and where only correct answers were accepted. If you dare to the slightest bit of being transparent, you've got a bunch of other men jumping in to fix you. Here, other men are there, not to fix you, but to say, 'I am right there with you.'"  - Mark (43)


"It's a great blessing and encouragement to gather with a group of men who are investing their time in pursing God's higher purpose for their lives. We may be bit sleepy at 5:30am, but we're alive and we're choosing to get the most out of life - the abundant life God longs to bless us with."  - Glenn (47)
