In our culture, men often struggle to talk to each another about the things that really matter: our fears, desires, sins, and our suffering. We’re more likely to keep our real thoughts and feelings hidden and to live independently, embracing island mentality.
The Bible envisages a connected community who disciple each other – who build one another up in faith through knowing each other, caring deeply for each other, and by praying and speaking gospel truth into each other’s lives.
There’s much to say to encourage, challenge, and grow one another in maturity in our faith.
The men’s ministry aims to disrupt the island mentality and enable us to be more like the connected, discipling community that Paul describes in Ephesians 4.
There are many ways to be part of this community.
Our next event is our Men’s Work Day and Summer BBQ on Saturday 5th July.
At the last Prayer and Praise, we prayed for Renier and the plant into Westvale Chapel in Kirby. One of the things we prayed for was some work that was needed to help maintain the building and grounds.
Men in the church now have the opportunity to be the answer to our own prayers!
For our next Men's event, on 5th July, we're going to spend an afternoon working on some of the maintenance needed at Westvale Chapel together, then have a BBQ together in their grounds. This is an opportunity to enjoy fellowship together and to bless the existing members and the planting team at Westvale.
We'll start the work in the afternoon at 2 pm and start the BBQ at 6:30 pm.
People can come just for the BBQ, but we would really value men to help with the work at Westvale as well.
Any Y-Connect boys are welcome to come with their dads.
