Father's Day Offering
Men’s Ministry has become an invaluable medium through which men are bringing their gifts to the kingdom table, making both a timeless, and tangible difference locally and globally. Through our joint efforts with North American, and Global Missions, hundreds of capable, committed men continue to build the kingdom at home, and abroad - constructing houses of worship, Bible schools, and orphanages, and in concerted efforts of man-to-man evangelism as well. In addition to the investment of Men’s Ministries — and men — in myriad mission’s projects world-wide, including funding for the H.O.M.E. International Orphanage in Guatemala, to help underwrite meaningful ministry to men across our fellowship, as we continue our commitment to building better men, and growing greater churches. Every year on Father's Day, the Men's Ministry of the UPCI takes up an offering to help in these causes. |
