“Let your light shine before men in such a way that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father who is in heaven.” – Matthew 5:16
We have an active group of men at EBC who partner together in the Men’s Ministry group to fulfill ministry opportunities and promote fellowship among the men and boys in our church and community.
We are most diligent in seeking out needs within the church or in the community that otherwise may not be fulfilled. We raise monies to fund these ministries through golf tournaments, gospel singings, and other fundraisers. All of the monies collected are then used to purchase food for the Men’s Ministry food pantry, provide assistance for those in need, and offset the cost for boys to attend RA Camp in the summer.
We are also concerned to promote fellowship among the men and boys in our church and community. We understand that men need fellowship with one another that is fundamentally spiritual in nature in order to promote a healthy spiritual life for ourselves and our families. Moreover, we accept the responsibility and work diligently to mentor the boys and young men around us so that they might be found to be the faithful leaders of our church, community, and culture in the next generation. We seek to build this camaraderie mostly through cookouts, campouts, fishing trips, and skeet shooting.
In a day when most men are too busy to be used by the Lord in ministry, or too distracted to see the need for Christian worship and fellowship, we are committing ourselves equip, encourage, and empower men and boys to know Christ and make Him known.
