It takes place in our lives, in our jobs, in our friendships and in our distractions and it’s called “spiritual warfare”. Men’s Fraternity is taking a break for this Fall and Spring to make room for some sessions in the same style that will teach us all how to stay in tune with God and realize all He has for us despite the world going on all around us. It’s called Quest and it’s a great way to get a new group of men together to learn and grow in true “Mens’ Fraternity” style. Contact Rev. Patrick Evans for details at 281-358-2137 or simply meet in the Fellowship Hall each Tuesday for a few weeks. · Beginning Wed. Sept. 21st @ 6:30pm - From Called To Sent Group Forming: From Disciple to Apostle - You may know of several people who have been meeting on Sunday evenings to hear lectures and commentary from Rev. Elizabeth Moreau. These are based on her books and are a study of the early church practices and how they can help us today. It’s a three (3) year journey that is more than worth taking. A new group is starting for Wednesday night meetings beginning at 6:30pm. Fall and Spring sessions last about 6-8 weeks each with group meetings in between to pray and share and fellowship. For information contact KUMC at 281-358-2137 or visit the web site. · Wednesdays @ 5:30-9:00pm - The Table - Each Wednesday this Fall, KUMC will have a chance for you to share a meal with others as a family...including your kids from 5:30-6:30pm. Then it’s off to bible studies for adults, junior & senior high, children’s and adult choirs and children’s chimes/handbells, grace groups and more. Contact KUMC or check the web site at www.kingwoodumc.org for details or just come on over. · Sun. Sept. 25th @ 3:30pm - Opera in the Woods Concert for S.O.S.S. - Back by popular demand is a concert at KUMC’s Sanctuary to benefit Soceity of St. Stephens. Contact the church office for details or register at KUMC on Sunday morning. · Starting Soon - Golf Group - Starting soon, reserve a Tuesday night once every week or two to go to Oakhurst and play a few holes of golf and talk with some other men about what God is doing in your life. Contact Paul Amos or Patrick Evans if interested or the church office at 281-358-2137. | Ongoing Events These activities are ongoing | You can join these activities at any time this Spring and Summer. · On Fridays Now - KUMC Softball Team - Yes, KUMC has a men’s softball team and they have been taking Kingwood on for the past few years one Friday night at a time. Join them by contacting Mike O’Shea or KUMC’s office at 281-358-2137 for game time and place. · Ongoing - Bus Stop Prison Ministry Needs Men - Each weekday in Humble at the bus station, men and women who are set free from prison having served their time are dropped off to await a bus to the next stage of their lives. Now, a small but dedicated group of your friends and neighbors is gathering to meet them, give them a fresh change of clothes, buy them lunch and snacks to fill their bellies, and show them that God still loves them and wants them back in His world. Men, consider giving of your time to meet these men (women will meet with women) at the bus stop and show some of God’s love for them before they begin the next part of their journey. Help is needed on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Fridays around lunch time. Or if you work consider donating jeans, T-shirts, new toiletries, or moneys to provide food and snacks. Contact KUMC at 281-358-2137 if you can help. · Fridays @ 6am - Friday AHP Moves To New Home - Due to the expansion of the School for Little Children and related ministries it was decided that AHP needs to find a new home on Friday mornings. As God would have it, one was available and we are really excited about it. So we will move beginning this date to the K Building on the northwest corner of campus. Men, bring your prayer and study group, or come be a part of ours, as we have lots of room in our new home to grow. Contact Purvis Harper for details or just show up then. · Sunday Morning AHP - For those who can’t make Friday mornings, a similar group meets on Sunday mornings at 7:15am in K105. They are studying “Chasm by Randy Alcorn”. Every second Sunday they stop down and go to the Men’s Fellowship Breakfast. Visitors are welcomed. | In The Pipeline… | · Early October - Walk to Emmaus is on Again - There is a men’s walk to Emmaus, is a spiritual weekend like none other, scheduled for early October. If you missed out on the summer and spring walks, or know someone who did but didn’t want to, consider taking this three day journey with God and yourself. If you’ve already been but know someone who wants to go, consider becoming a sponsor. To be sponsored, or to make yourself available, contact KUMC’s office at 281-358-2137 or ask someone you know who has been. · Early October - Kairos Prison Ministry - More Kairos weekends are scheduled for early October and aren’t to be missed. This is similar to the Walk to Emmaus but for “men in white” behind Prison walls. Teams are forming now and you can jump in by contacting the organizers. If you want to go and see what it’s about, consider going to the Sunday Afternoon “closing” event at each unit where it’s held. Contact KUMC at 281-358-2137 or one of the team members for Kairos. With Kairos especially, your wives can play important roles on the “outside” team so you could do this together. · Sun. Oct. 9th @ 7:15am - Men’s Fellowship Breakfast - Another great topic is on deck for the Fall along with some great food. Join us Sunday mornings in the gym each second Sunday for the fellowship breakfast. Contact Andrew Sweatman or KUMC for details or just show up. · Sat. Oct. 15th @ 8:30am - The Return of 3rd Saturday Events - Men, every third Saturday from now on will have something going on that you won’t want to miss. Meet in KUMC’s parking lot to begin something special each third Saturday. Some events you can include your children for a great learning and growing experience with them. Other times, it will be something just for you. Details TBA but come out this first Saturday ready to work a little in some of God’s fellowship. |
