Men’s Small Groups
Mentoring. Accountability. Discipleship. The Real "M.A.D. men." The purpose of our small groups is to challenge and encourage the men of Christ Church and provide biblical training to enable them to become effective Godly leaders at home, in church, at work, and in the community.Current small groups meet regularly to discuss Christian books and the Bible, encourage each other, and hold one another up in prayer.
For those who are interested in leading a small group, we have training and resources available, as well as small group mentors who can assist, if needed.

United Methodist Men (UMM)
Every man in Christ Church is automatically a member of United Methodist Men (UMM). There are no dues and there are no membership applications – only participation and service. Our mission is to assist men in knowing Jesus Christ, serving Him, growing spiritually, and seeking daily to do His will and His work. Fellowship, work projects, small groups, men’s retreats, and sports events all help us in achieving this mission. We host at least one men’s retreat annually, and we also hold two golf tournaments. The funds we raise are used to support local, national and global missions. Participating in UMM activities will help you to know Christ through associating with some of the strongest and finest Christian men you will ever hope to meet!Click here for UMM Events
