WFF (Worship, Family, & Fun):
Worship, family, and fun are the cornerstones of a balanced and fulfilling life for teenage boys. Worship provides a moral compass and a sense of purpose, guiding them through the challenges of adolescence. Strong family connections offer unconditional love, support, and a safe haven where they can explore their identity and develop healthy relationships. Fun, whether through hobbies, sports, or social activities, allows them to express themselves creatively, relieve stress, and build lasting friendships. Together, these three elements nurture a well-rounded individual, fostering spiritual growth, emotional resilience, and a joyful approach to life. So come Worship with us at Brown Baptist Church and food, fun, and fulfilling day at Put Put Gaming Center afterwards.
Sunday, July 28th, Worship service starts at 10 a.m.
Youth Leadership Retreat:
The end of summer and the start of a new school year brings a mix of emotions for many Brotherhood members. While there may be some lingering sadness about bidding farewell to the carefree days of summer, there's also a growing sense of excitement and anticipation. The prospect of reuniting with friends, tackling new challenges, and getting involved in engaging classes and activities can be energizing. As the first day of school approaches, many of the fellas find themselves eagerly looking forward to the opportunities for growth, learning, and fun that the coming months will bring. The day will be filled with camaraderie and team building activities. So let's celebrate and prepare for an AWESOME SCHOOL YEAR!!
