Greetings in the name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. In preparation for the upcoming Spiritual Congress September 14-16, Williams Bay Wis., we will be doing a study on the Book of Matthew. Reverend Larry Hilkemann will lead our study.
The Northern Illinois Conference UMM seeks to assist men to know Christ, to serve him, to grow spiritually and to seek to do his will daily
By reading and studying we learn to apply The Gospel of Matthew: A Guide for Life in Your Congregation. What can Matthew teach congregation and us that will make us better where we are? We come into the church informally through fellowship, calling, healing, and invitations to be a part of something larger.
We have four workshops for us to hear and learn about Welcoming (lead by Rev. James Preston), Discipleship (lead by Rev. Zaki Zaki), Forgiveness (lead by Rev. Dianna Facemyer) and Mission (led by Jim Miller). These should be informative and challenging for us. This is to be a time of renewal, reflection and growth for our men and our congregations as God leads us.
You can go to the United Methodist Men’s website for the complete information. Please click on the Spiritual Congress button, download the brochure and registration forms and join other men who will be inspired, challenged, and witnesses for Jesus Christ.
