The brilliant scarlet, gold and orange blaze of the Serengeti sunset outshines the flames of the campfire in Robert Lewis's favorite photograph. In it, he and his wife Sherard sit before the fire. Africa's highest point, Mount Kilimanjaro, towers behind them in the distance.

Manhood Training
Date: 5/30/2006
By:

Bob May lives for adventure. In his career, in his home and in his walk with God, he wants life at its fullest. As a top C-130 pilot, May volunteered in 2005 to train Iraqis how to fly the four-engine, 76,000-pound transport plane. But May's training wasn't limited to passing on his knowledge about the C-130. He also taught fellow servicemen how to live for God. "Over the last couple of years as I've met with different groups of guys, I've seen they want to serve God and be good men," May says. "But there's no passion. They don't know how to experience what God intends in this adventure called life." That's why May brought "The Great Adventure"-a Men's Fraternity group study-into the Iraqi desert.

My Dad and I are "Buds"...After 60 Years!
Date: 1/30/2006
By:

On Tuesday, March 15, I went to University Baptist Church near Houston, Texas and attended my first Men's Fraternity meeting. Dr. Robert Lewis was speaking at the instructional workshop that morning on "What Men Need and How the Church Can Help". During his presentation he spoke about his relationship with his dad and how difficult it had been. I really related to what he was speaking about. My own father never told me he loved me or hugged me. I could never please him or "measure up" to his expectations. As I was listening, I felt like someone had just punched me in the stomach. What Dr. Lewis was sharing was exactly my relationship with my dad, who is now 94-years-old and in a nursing home, and I just didn't want to "go there".

Men's Fraternity ALASKA
Date: 8/30/2005
By:

Unalaska Christian Fellowship, Dutch Harbor/Unalaska, Alaska Out on the edge of the earth, in the Aleutian islands of Alaska, you will find Dutch Harbor/Unalaska (two names but one town), the number one fishing port in America. Known as the last frontier, millions of pounds of fish are loaded and unloaded commercially each year, and the fishermen have maintained a reputation for being ruff and wild, necessary traits as crabbing in the Bearing Sea has been considered the most dangerous job in America. In the midst of this life on the edge, in a town full of "extremes"-extreme location, extreme weather, and an extremely dangerous industry-stands Unalaska Christian Fellowship, a small church with 180 in attendance. Unalaska Christian Fellowship (UCF) is a unique, multi ethnic, multi language family equally diverse in denominational backgrounds all holding together onto Jesus as their source of life. For the majority of the 4000 full time residents and up to 10,000 seasonal residents, the only purpose for being in Dutch Harbor/Unalaska is the money. 16 hour days, seven days a week is a very common work schedule. Though this may not be unique in the bush of Alaska, the result of this pursuit of money has left the men working or drinking and the women running every civic and cultural entity of the community.

Men's Fraternity Down Under

By:
MF Staff
Although most men in the United States are perhaps all too familiar with the nature and symbolism of a "fraternity", for men in Australia it is not a well-known term. Yet, no matter what the geographic area, the heart of Men's Fraternity remains the same. Its message cuts at the core of men all around the world as Craig Porter and his "Aussie blokes" have discovered.
