Our church created a night where men of all ages could come together and have fun

August 26, 2019

“This is a fish fry and game night for men. When we were little, we knew how to play with each other and communicate and have fun. When we grow up, we lose that ability because we don’t get together enough. Our church wanted to have a night where men from 8 to 80 could have fun. The board said, make it competitive and they will come. We have games and they compete for a deep-sea fishing trip and throw darts. It started with 60 people two years ago. Last year was 150 and it will be more this year. Men who don’t come to our church come to this and we have seven or eight churches represented here. Men don’t want to tell other men their problems and get vulnerable, but they make friendships here that last throughout the year. That opens the door to other connections.”
