"Winning at Work and at Home"

As men we face real challenges in being men of integrity in the home and in the workplace. Each man who is pursuing a quality masculinity wants to succeed at his work and in his home. On Tuesday, September 16 we will begin the 2nd installment of Men's Fraternity, "Winning at Work and at Home". This 17 week series (8 weeks in the fall and 9 weeks in the spring) will equip men with practical, hands on tools to help each man be his best in the home and on the job.

Each of the Men's Fraternity components "stands alone" so a man can begin here and benefit fully. In other words, it is not necessary for a man to have gone through or completed "Quest for Authentic Manhood" in order to benefit from "Winning at Work and at Home". Whereas "Quest" had a significant amount of "looking back" at past wounds, "Winning" focuses on the here and now. The video instruction by Robert Lewis will guide each man to develop a process of becoming a more effective man in the workplace and in his family relationships.

The cost will be $15 for each man. This is open to any man in our community and I encourage those of you who participated in Year One to come back for Year Two and bring your friends. Our format will be the same. I will host the series, providing orientation for each session. Robert Lewis will be our video instructor and then we will have about 30 minutes of time in small groups. We will offer 2 sessions every Tuesday: one from 6:00-7:30 AM and one from 7:00-8:30 PM. This year we will meet in the Gymnatorium. Sign-ups will start on Sunday, August 24.
