We recently had our first men's prayer breakfast. It was held in our apartment at 7:00 on a Saturday morning. A total of 11 men came and it was a great time that draw us closer together. Over bread and coffee, we enjoyed good fellowship.
Not all are in the pictures and several were not able to come.
After breakfast, I gave a short 7 minute devotional. Then we shared prayer requests and prayed together in groups of two.
Much to my surprise, after the prayer time several of the men shared openly the struggles they were facing. Their transparency revealed a searching for fellowship, help and support as well as a sincere desire to grow in the Lord. It was a great opportunity for me to get to know them better and learn of their needs. We plan to continue this event once each month.
