LMM Update
By Norm Smith, LMM [0312]PACELutheran Men in Mission’s (LMMs) Vision: For every man to have a growing relationship with Jesus Christ through an effective men’s ministry in every congregation.
I have been absent from my writing of Lutheran Men in Mission (LMM) activities the past few months for several reasons, but I wanted to write a short article about a LMM workshop that is being held in May, plus other activities. Please visit http://www.lutheranmeninmission.org/ to see a full listing of LMM activities and meetings.
LMM will present a men’s ministry leadership session, Building Men for Christ Workshop that will be held in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, on May 5. It is a one day workshop to help church leaders develop and sustain a life-changing men’s ministry for their congregation that can impact all the men in the congregation, regardless where they are in their spiritual journey. Teams of 2-4 from a congregation are encouraged to attend. Individuals are welcome as well. Topics include the following and more: 5 Types of Guys, Building a Men’s Ministry Plan, The No Man Left Behind Model, Create Value, Capture Momentum, Sustain Change and the I-GO strategy.
This workshop was the featured cover story in the latest Summer 2010 LMM Newsletter. It can be found at www.lutheranmeninmission.org/resources/foundations.html
Workshop promotional and registration materials are available at www.lutheranmen.org Event\Building Men for Christ page. Registration is $69 and includes workshop manual, two resource books and lunch. Registration is free for pastors (male or female) when attending with at least two men from their church. Registration Deadline is April 28. There is a $10 Discount if registered by April 14.
