We welcome you to Men’s Ministries of the North/East Texas District. We believe God has given us a unique privilege as well as a diverse command to minister for Jesus Christ to the Men of our church family. God has blessed to the point that we are able to offer a variety of ministries and a well-balanced program of growth and service opportunity for each man. These ministries are designed to ‘bring lives into harmony with God.’
Our Mission
Befriending men, encouraging them in their relationship with Jesus and each other, providing opportunities for growth in faith and service to our Lord. To help develop men spiritually. To help serve within the body of our church. To provide social activities to acquaint men with other men. To be an outreach of help to families within and outside the church body.
