Husband, Father, Son, Brother, Friend, Worker. These are just a few of the titles and responsibilities men carry. At Marysville Grace, we believe that they are all best wrapped in the title, Disciple. As men know and follow Jesus, He transforms their lives with the strength, wisdom, and integrity to navigate successfully the challenges and opportunities that are presented to them each day. Encouragement and accountability with other men is a key element of the process.

Current Upcoming Events and Opportunities

• Men’s Basketball meets each Sunday, 7-8:30pm, at the Marysville YMCA for all men high school age and older (no children are permitted to attend due to YMCA rules). We’ll meet every Sunday through March 25 unless told otherwise.
• Dads Encouraging Dads begins meeting Saturday, February 25, 8 a.m. at the Minstry Center. Join us for candid discussion on raising children in our society today – spiritual, practical, and biblical application as well as encouragement, accountability and prayer. We’ll keep meeting the last Saturday morning of each month through May.
• Men Aligning to Pray (MAP’s) groups begin in February! Without maps we would be lost. Whether it’s a GPS or an old paper one, we need maps to point us in the right direction. The same is true spiritually. We need to align ourselves with God, His Word, His church (Marysville Grace), and His sons (our brothers in Christ) in prayer, so He can provide direction for the journey of life. These groups will consist of 3-6 men who will get together weekly to pray for the ministry of Marysville Grace, the community, missions, unsaved friends, family, each other, etc. They will also meet to encourage and hold each other accountable. Sign up online today or on Sunday’s response form (write a day and time that works best for you) and we’ll contact you as groups are arranged.

Spring Retreat: A weekend away in March or April with a focused study of a biblical topic relevant to men. The setting is relaxed with afternoon options for hiking, Frisbee golf, basketball, or indoor activities.

Black Mountain Retreat: Five October days in beautiful northern Michigan in an area that offers fishing, kayaking, hiking, ATV trails, and hunting. It’s rustic but comfortable with time for fun, reflection, and friendship.

Fall Gathering: A Saturday morning opportunity in November with music, food, and a guest speaker to challenge us to stay on track in following Jesus.ne

Bible Studies: At various times throughout the year, we meet on Saturdays, 7-8:30am, in the Classroom at the Ministry Center.

Upcoming Bible Study

Courageous Bible Study begins next Saturday, January 28, 8 am, at the Ministry Center for 4 weeks. If you saw the movie with us last fall, this study would be a great follow-up – though it would be a great study for any man, even if you haven’t seen the movie! It includes film clips to support each lesson theme, scriptural truths, discussion, application, etc. Sign up on the Registration Form today (deadline to sign up is Sunday, January 22)!

Life Transformation (LT) Groups: A simple way to develop the most essential elements of a vital spiritual walk with Jesus, encouraging change from the inside out with a small group of committed fellow disciples.

Golf Outings: A Spring league on Tuesday evenings and a Fall (October) scramble with several other churches. For hotshots and duffers, there’s nothing like enjoying friends while chasing little round balls.

Service Projects: The men of Marysville Grace respond to needs in the church and the community, from setting up chairs and greeting guests to work days for area service organizations.
