One of the best kept secrets is the importance of the men in the church. In this message I am speaking specifically about the Methodist Men in the United Methodist Churches across this conference and the nation.

Be curious for a few minutes and read what this message says to you!
YOU ARE A KEY PERSON IN THE FUTURE OF THE CHURCH IN YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD, DISTRICT, CONFERENCE, JURISDICTION AND NATIONALLY. Read on and see why and how!

The “Men’s Groups” have been more like a service organization or a“meet and eat” group. The purpose of the United Methodist Men is to witness to and declare the centrality of Christ in every man’s life. It is to embrace the desire to strengthen a man’s spiritual walk with God.

We are more than an organization – we are IN MINISTRY one with another. This purpose is served as men are called to model the servant leadership of Jesus Christ.

Since about 1997 the visioning has become more and more clear;

1. Where to focus the energy for spiritual growth material.
2. Where to focus the energy for training to organize local church men’s groups.
3. Where to focus the energy for men to be in ministry and mission projects.
4. Where to focus the energy to become leaders of vision and understanding in the local church, district and conference.
   

The 2008 information packet is powerful resource for the UMM leaders in every local congregation. This packet is easy to use and there is additional support from the District and Conference Presidents and their steering committees.
