Purpose
United
Methodist Men shall be a creative, supportive fellowship of men who seek
to know Jesus Christ, to grow spiritually and to seek daily his will.
Our primary purpose is to declare the centrality of Christ in the lives
of men and in all their relationships.
The major concerns are:
• To
encourage knowledge of and support for the total mission of The United
Methodist Church
• To
engage in evangelism by sharing the fullness of the gospel in its
personal and social dimensions
• To
clarify and speak to the identity and role of the man in contemporary
society
• To seek
commitment to discipleship
• To study
and become familiar with The United Methodist Church, its
organization, doctrines, and beliefs
• To
cooperate with all units of United Methodist Men in obtaining these
objectives through district, conference, jurisdiction, and church-wide
goals
• Men
seeking membership in a local United Methodist Men's Fellowship shall
subscribe to the "Purpose" of United
Methodist
Men and to these personal objectives:
• Engage
daily in Bible study and prayer
• Bear
witness to Christ's way in daily work and in all personal contacts
through words and actions
• Engage
in some definite Christian service
