"Two are better than one, because they have a good return for their labour: If either of them falls down, one can help the other up. But pity anyone who falls and has no one to help them up. "
Ecclesiastes 4:9-10
The 2024 theme for the Men's Ministry is the Buddy System
The Buddy System is defined as a one-to-one relationship with another trusted Christian man that you can meet with on a weekly basis to pray and share with.
You can listen to the audio from Sept. 21 below that will further explain how the Buddy System works.

Galatians 6:10
This is your opportunity to do some Community Outreach, serving physical needs, such as home repairs, offering rides, feeding the homeless, etc. We plan monthly projects where our men can get their hands dirty as we serve our community. Working together also helps bond us together as men. To participate, request that your name be added to the Men at Work email list by either sending us an email or filling out the form below.
Men's Bible Studies
Our Men's Bible Study meets weekly on Thursdays at 7:15 p.m. at the The Kitchener Public Library - 85 Queen St N, Kitchener..
We are continuing to study the book series Every Man a Warrior, and are now in book 3. Book 3 has ten lessons that bring Scriptural application to the issues of Money, Sex and Moral Purity, Work, Going through Hard Times and Making Your Life Count. These issues will consume most of a man's life and energy and it is essential that he succeeds. This study is led by David O'Neil.
