Men in action

Beyond our formal BMF Fall & Spring meetings, we host various volunteer opportunities and gatherings throughout the year that make a positive impact within and beyond our community.

Volunteer opportunities

  • Serve those in need
  • Give time, talent & treasure
  • Guide those seeking advice from experience

Faith & Fitness

  • Spiritual + physical health promoted
  • “Run in such a way as to get the prize.” 1 Corinthians 9:24
  • Persevere in a race and in life

In 2017, a handful of men started meeting at a local diner. From that first “season” of a small table, over 90 men attend every Thursday. While the size of our group has changed, the mission remains the same.
