United Methodist Men is a core of men in the local church, partnering with their pastor, to invite and initiate spiritual growth opportunities for all men of the church. The focus is not inward, concentrating only on those who attend a set meeting, but outward to all men, assisting them to engage in the process of spiritual growth. Our goal is to empower the ministry of Jesus Christ through men within the congregations of the United Methodist Church and beyond. Jason Gordon, President
2023 Accomplishments
The United Methodist Men of Maple Park UMC served Breakfast on Resurrection Sunday, April 9th. It was a wonderful time to fellowship together as a church family, followed by Sunday Rise Service and Regular Worship Service praising our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
During the month of May, the UMM partnered with Higgins School. The Dean of Students, Darryl Meek, stated that his Male Mentoring program called “Man Up” needed our help. He mentors male students and was taking them to Fogo de Chao Restaurant on May 19th. The boys needed shirts and ties. The United Methodist Men came to their aide by purchasing dress shirts and ties for all of the boys. They looked like distinguished gentlemen.
It is our hope to continue our partnership with Higgins School.
2024 Goals
One of our goals for 2024 is to do more outreach and to continue to be good stewards helping the needs of males in the Maple Park community and the surrounding areas.
