Christian men, doing life together
We are forming new small groups for the fall now. You are not too late. Please e-mail us at NYMensMinistry@yahoo.com. Also keep an eye out for our kick-off event.
Small groups are the best way to create strong relationships and grow closer to Christ. Why not consider coming to a group. There is no commitment and I promise you that you will be welcomed warmly!
The Retreat is here! This coming weekend.
Thursday, September 13th – Sunday, September 16th
Lake Champion, NY (Glen Spey, NY)

Great weekend everyone! We had our largest group ever, 16 people. One member of our group, Curtis, was baptized in the lake! We had a great time getting to know each other. It’s great to have good Christian friends. For those that couldn’t join us – we missed you!
Just posted some pictures on our facebook group. http://www.facebook.com/groups/43848377913/ Hope you enjoy. Here are just a few:
Finally, in the spirit of the weekend, here are 10 things I learned:
(1) Alhassan can play a mean game of frisbee golf. After one of my throws he said “you aren’t very athletic are you?” Thank brother!
(2) A letter in Vinny Coniglio’s last name is silent. Do you know which one? Hint: It’s not the ‘C’
(3) John snores
(4) If you take a long time to drink your milkshake … make sure no one is around to continue to bring it up all weekend.
(5) Alhassan once shaved his head and John would for a $1000, any takers?
(6) Robert can’t drive a nail while wearing a blindfold, sunglasses and a funny hat
(7) Although it may have felt like it, we didn’t set a world record for the longest time between sinking a ball (other than the cue ball) in billards.
(8) Yves is fearless – zip line, swing, rope course …. bring it on!
(9) When you get baptized in Lake Champion, the Holy Spirit turns your potbelly into a six pack (Curtis)!
and #10….
(10) Yes Vinny, the water fountain works!
Come join us for one of our small groups this week. Either Thursday evening or Saturday morning. Send a note to learn more.
