Dear Geoff,
How are you my friend?
The meeting was held in the Church Hall on this Sunday11th October2009. The members were present at 09h00 and the chairman Giyani Matampi opened the meeting with prayer..
The agenda was announced and discussed and the key objectives were as follows:.
- To plan how we will establish a Mission Statement of "Men of the Master". The chairman Giyani stated that he had already been working on an option, which he would share with the forum at the next meeting.
- To determine the role of men in the church as the Women's Fellowship had been the main driver in St Mark's. Once finalised the Men's Fellowship would request a Men's Service (probably next year) But in the interim the men will bee helping where ever they are needed (e.g.; door duty, maintenance of the website and internet out-reach to link St Mark's to the Christian community, vestry duty, name tags presentation at the door etc.
- To set up an Men for the Master bank account. This will be studied in the committee meeting which will held in 2 weeks time.
- To book a Men's breakfast and here the has been finalised: 29th Nov 2009.
- To set up a steering committee.
- To grow both membership and revenue. .
- To invite a guest speaker for a men's retreat (where the men of St Mark's will be taught about different issues pertaining to family life.. Rev Dr. Amon Kasambala, from "Focus on Family," was proposed as our first speaker.
