Presbyterian Men

Ten Sunday mornings each year, the Loy Building is redolent with the wonderful smells of coffee, orange juice, bacon, sausage, French toast, scrambled eggs, and biscuits. When you open the front door, you are immediately alerted to the fact that the renowned catering firm of Bill, Bill, and David (getting by with a little help from their friends) is scrambling around the kitchen while groups of hungry locusts (better known as men of the church) are gathering in the Fellowship Hall. It is the third Sunday of the month and Presbyterian Men are meeting for breakfast.

Each month, with the exception of July and August, all men of the church are invited to gather for great food and even better fellowship. Sometimes we meet just as a group of men and other times we play host to groups such as the Confirmation Class, the Session, the Sunday School, or the whole congregation. Sometimes we have guest speakers who provide us with information about Christian concerns and other times we just share the fellowship of an eclectic, interesting group of guys.

We are young, we are old, and we are in between. What we have in common is a caring for our religion and our church and a respect for each other. There are neither membership requirements nor dues, neither initiation rituals nor exorbitant obligations. In fact, they only rule we have is that you show up with an appetite (We’ll even waive that and let you get by on coffee and orange juice if you prefer).

Mark your calendar and join us at 8:30 a.m. in the Loy Building. You’ll be glad you did and so will we.
