Life is a day by day battle for our souls. Our constant challenge is to resist the forces of spiritual inertia and seek opportunities to grow and develop as authentic men—men who reflect the character of the Ultimate Man, Jesus Christ. None of us can go it alone. To that end, we invite you to join the All Saints Men’s Ministry and discover the blessings of friendship and real brotherhood in the presence of our brother, friend, and Lord, Jesus Christ.
The All Saints Men’s Ministry is all about men who want to grow in their relationship with Christ and with each other. It is truly a ministry to men, by men, and for men, brothers together in authentic Christian community, friendship, and fellowship. Men united in a lifelong adventure of spiritual transformation. Men who want to grow as disciples to serve their families, church and community in whatever role the Lord calls them—friends, husbands, fathers, laborers, leaders, and representatives of Christ.
“But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.”
2 Pt. 3:18
How does the Men’s Ministry work?
We are convinced that God has called us to live in sacrificial relationships of mutual love and service with our spiritual brothers. Moreover, it is a bedrock principle that we become spiritually transformed within authentic Christian community. Therefore, the All Saints Men’s Ministry will be fundamentally based on small groups and real friendships.
"Two are better than one because they have a good return for their work; if one falls down, his friend can help him up." Ecc. 4:9–10
Men’s Ministry small groups are formed and fed primarily by coming together as brothers at weekend retreats scheduled twice each year. In addition to fun and fellowship, each retreat will focus on spiritual source material that we will read before coming to the retreat. Through small group discussions and clear biblical teaching, we will learn to talk to each other for real. From those profound times together, existing small groups will be strengthened and new small groups will be born.
In between these formation retreats, existing small groups can add new members and new small groups can be formed. Please feel free to contact the All Saints Men’s Ministry Small Groups Coordinator to learn more.
“How do I get more information?”
For about 4–6 weeks before each twice-yearly retreat, expect to see an All Saints Men’s Ministry information table in the church lobby staffed by a member of our ministry. All the information you need about the next retreat will be available as well as copies of the book we will be reading together for the retreat. We will also have information about existing small groups and about men looking to form small groups. If you want information at any other time during the year, please feel free to contact the church office, or even better, one of the All Saints Men’s Ministry team members:
