We have recently set up a new initiative at Holy Trinity aimed at Men.
The idea is not to be sexist or misogynistic; quite the opposite. We know that Men are walking away from Church in huge numbers; we have to work out why and do something about it.
In a recent poll by Sorted Magazine it was shown that the Church is seen as:
irrelevent
for women
for wimps
Jesus said "If any want to become my followers, let them deny themselves and take up their cross daily and follow me". Luke 9:23
Is there anything wimpy about this?
Our aim is to feed the men of HT in order to build solid friendships and then to reach out to others.
In short, we want to bring men to Jesus.
How will we do this?
We will aim to run events throughout the year where men can get together, have fun and build friendships. We have already had an afternoon playing Wii sports and we have hosted a Six Nations Rugby screening, both were great events. We are thinking of new events all the time so watch this space for more information.
Newsletter
We will publish a newsletter every month or two to update you of events and to give you links to resources (we may include the odd word of wisdom as well!).
