PURPOSE

United Methodist Men shall be a creative, supportive fellowship of men who seek to know Jesus Christ, to grow spiritually and to seek daily his will.

Our primary purpose is to declare the centrality of Christ in the lives of men and in all their relationships.

The major concerns are:

• To encourage knowledge of and support for the total mission of The United Methodist Church
• To engage in evangelism by sharing the fullness of the gospel in its personal and social dimensions
• To clarify and speak to the identity and role of the man in contemporary society
• To seek commitment to discipleship
• To study and become familiar with The United Methodist Church, its organization, doctrines, and beliefs
• To cooperate with all units of United Methodist Men in obtaining these objectives through district, conference, jurisdiction, and church-wide goals.
• Men seeking membership in a local United Methodist Men’s Fellowship shall subscribe to the “Purpose” of United Methodist Men and to these personal objectives:
  • Engage daily in Bible study and prayer.
  • Bear witness to Christ’s way in daily work and in all personal contacts through words and actions.
  • Engage in some definite Christian service.

Every Man Shares in Evangelism, Mission, and Spiritual Life

WHAT WE DO:

We provide a Church wide fellowship for all male members of our church as well as any other male that believes in what we do and would like to share in our efforts.

We conduct projects promoting fellowship and assistance with various missions of the Church. These activities range from grooming the grounds of the church, supporting Boy Scout Troop 402, assisting with local mission projects to assistance with international mission projects. Our fellowship offers an opportunity for you to fulfill your calling.
