Have you heard about the “Men of HOPE”??
You may have heard about their weekly meetings, or how they have been the main organizers for field day, or you may not know anything about them yet, but that’s about to change.
Men of HOPE began as HOPE dads (mostly) getting together on a regular basis to study the Bible and encourage one another through this journey that life is. As men from many different local churches began attending and as HOPE Academy grew, so did Men of HOPE.
In order to reach others in the community the group has expanded to men who do not have children at HOPE Academy, to further the Kingdom of Christ and lead others to salvation.
Being able to read the Bible together, share thoughts and experiences, and encourage one another is one such an important thing as these men lead their families and go into the world.
In leading their families, it’s evident how Men of HOPE enriches the lives of the men who attend meetings, and events. As a wife of someone who is an active part of Men of HOPE I can say with certainty that because of the bond my husband shares with these men and the way these men have lifted him (and our family) up in prayer, not only has my husband’s relationship with God become stronger but our entire family has been positively impacted.
Isn’t that something we all want for our families?
If you are a HOPE dad, I strongly encourage you to check out one of two opportunities to meet with other like-minded men just to see what it’s like. If you are a community member looking to learn more about God or searching for resources to grow in your faith I encourage you to check out Men of HOPE as well.
If you are a HOPE mom and feel this is a good fit for the HOPE dad in your life, encourage them to ask around or attend a meeting to see for themselves. Also ladies, be in prayer for these men, all of these men, because they are doing mighty things for HOPE Academy and the world we live in both on the front lines and behind the scenes.
