Event ideas and Resources
Here are some of the event ideas and resources that have been sent through to us. We hope and pray that you may find them helpful, useful and perhaps, inspirational.Men and Meat video and news article (Three Daves - a Butcher, a Knife Sharpener, and a Preacher Guy - were invited to entertain and inform. Other churches like Hornsby have taken the concept and improved their events - Mark, Neutral Bay Anglican)
Men and Machines (a night with three supercars (a Ferrari F430, a Porsche 911 GT3, Aston Martin Vantage V8 - Mark, Neutral Bay Anglican)
Men and Medicine (a night filled with men's health information and a chance to ask all the questions men should/don't - Bay, Chatswood Presbyterian)
Chatswood Mens Ministry (CMM) promotes itself with this brochure, maybe it is something your church could use?
"Men's Revenge" weekend retreat promo video (dont be put off by the feminine start! - Marty, Allowera Baptist)
Mens Prayer Breakfast and Bike Ride promo video (a sequel! - Marty, Allowera Baptist)
And of course, there are plenty of other events through which you can encourage your men. How about these:
- Sporting challenges with other local churches (like Ten Pin Bowling between the blokes of Nowra, Huskissen and Bomaderry)
- Trivia nights
- Barefoot bowls
- A BBQ
- A Fathers Day talk by an experienced Dad
- Watching big sporting events together
- Father-child camping weekends
- A "classic video games" night where you break out the Megadrive, NES or C64
- Watching "Fireproof" on DVD with your wife at a combined Men's and Women's ministry event
If you want to add an idea or suggestion - with men in mind of course - email it through to us!
