Two are Better Than One

The 2025 theme for the Men’s Ministry is based on Ecclesiastes 4:9 “Two are better than one, because they have a good return for their labour” The Bible teaches that men need a one-to-one relationship with another trusted Christian man where they can meet with on a weekly basis to pray and share with.

Men At Prayer

Prayer is the powerhouse of our men’s ministry. We meet via Zoom every 4th Saturday of the month at 9:00am for a time of sharing and then of prayer. We will continue to meet during the summer - please join us. The Zoom link is always the same, but feel free to email us using the form below if you don't have it bookmarked already.

Men At Work

Therefore, as we have opportunity, let us do good to all people, especially to those who belong to the family of believers.

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 at men@benton.church.
