Save the date!!! More information forthcoming.

Thanks for everything!!

I would like to thank the great group of guys we have on the Steering Committee. We are making progress for the Lord! I enjoyed our meeting last night. I think it is a personal blessing to be in such faithful company.

We are looking for some additional members for our steering committee.

Wonderful Gathering

Gents....

We had a great gathering at St. John's UMC. The presentation by Big Brothers/Big Sisters was very informative. Let me know if you would like to take this back to your local Churches. There are many of young people in the Austin area that could use a positive role model in their lives.

The bowling fundraiser was good. We raised $270 for the BB/BS organization.

Put a placeholder on your calendars for February 13th. That is the tentative date of our next gathering.

In His Name:

Chip

We are the Light to those around us.

When Jesus spoke again to the people, he said, "I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life."

--John 8:12

Christ calls us to shine. Consider this as you go about your day. How are you allowing Christ's light to be magnified through you to those around you?

Blessings!!

Greetings, Men;

I decided to create a blog dedicated to the Austin District of the Unite Methodist Men. This is a forum that can be used to discuss topics of interest in the District, in our local Churches, or in the Ministry to Men.
