Peachtree Corners Christian Church
Men's Group
16 guys from 5 different local
Christian Churches (Disciples of Christ) joined Peachtree
Corners Christian Church at Ryan's Restaurant on June
12, 2010 at 8am for our June Men's Breakfast. Those
present included Decatur First, Sandy Springs, First
Atlanta, Guyton and PCCC. Click here for some
Photos of the event.
Archie Jenkins, our speaker,
moved us into consideration of how to encourage younger
men, those 18-39, to become more a part of the church
of today as well as Men's Ministry activities. This
age group is somewhat scarce in many of the mainline
denominations. Mentorship and service oriented gatherings
seem to be answers. But, of course, personal invitations
(evangelism - the e-word) may work best. And, don't
forget prayer - (start with this actually).
Archie then talked about
the Cookin' For Mission ministry, for which we collected
$143.85 (Yeah Baby!) during the meeting. Several Youth
related organizations across the nation benefit from
the work of Cookin' For Mission each year.
In Memory - Charles Maddox
Charles passed away
on September 23, 2009. Charles was a wonderful
churchman, an inspirational leader of Disciples Men,
and a true friend. Charles was the recipient of
the Layman of the Year in 1999.
Spirit of Joy CMF
- The Christian Men's Group normally meets the first
Saturday of the month in the Activities unit. Breakfast
is served before the meeting and is provided by one
of the men. Dress is very casual.
We are currently studying "What about
Religion & Science?" Our last discussion of this
subject was very informative and lively. The meeting
starts at 8:00 a.m. and lasts about an hour. Come
early and join in discussion of local and world situations.
All men are welcome.
