Men's Fraternity is a series of three, one-year-long studies, beginning with The Quest for Authentic Manhood, followed by Authentic Manhood: Winning at Work and Home and concluding with The Great Adventure series. More than just a rally or a Bible study, Men's Fraternity provides men with an encouraging process that teaches them how to live lives of authentic manhood as modeled by Jesus Christ and directed by the Word of God.
Topics Include:
- Seasons of a Man’s Life
- Uncovering a Man’s Wounds
- Defining Manhood
- Deepening the Marriage Relationship
- Raising Sons and Daughters
- Developing a Manhood Plan

Men with a heart for praise are welcome to join our men’s chorus on the 1st and 3rd Tuesday of each month at 6:30 PM in the choir room. Musical experience is not necessary. This group will lead in our Sunday evening worship service once a month. Each rehearsal is followed with fellowship and refreshments.
Our Men’s Basketball is not only fun, but also a place where a man may improve his game and his life. We begin with a time of prayer reflecting on Bible truths. During our scrimmages we focus on fair play, honesty, integrity, abiding by the rules, genuine friendship and teamwork. This is open to men of all ages and backgrounds.
We also sponsor Work Days – a time when we can “give back” to the community for the joy of enjoying our favorite game in a fine facility!
8:00 AM - 10:30 AM on Saturday mornings in the Family Life Center Gym
One of our men’s Sunday School classes sponsors a Men’s Fish Fry on the 4th Thursday of each month. All men are welcome! The food is great (usually locally caught fish, prepared by class members). Expect to eat, laugh and do some male bonding!
They meet at noon on scheduled Thursdays, in the Family Life Center.
Come for a time of fun and fellowship with other men at
The Links at Greenfield Plantation. Bring a friend or come alone and play 9 holes of golf any Thursday that you're available. There are no qualifications other than a love for the sport.
