2nd Annual Coffee & Christ Men's Fellowship 2010

Another great time was had today our our 2nd annual Coffee & Christ Men's Fellowship. Eleven Christian men attended for a morning of food, fellowship, and instruction.

We started off with a prayer by our pastor, Dave Hutchison, and then we went through the chow line. There was plenty of sausage, biscuits, doughnuts, coffee, juice, and milk on hand and everyone ate to their content.

After eating, I addressed the group and presented an outline that I had written concerning Christian leadership for men. I used Jesus Christ as our ultimate example of a leader and emphasized character and servitude as being our most valuable assets.

Next, my father, James Chesney, taught a wonderful lesson on leadership and also used Jesus Christ as our example and pointed out His unconditional love. He was much more in-depth than I was and he listed the 3 qualities of Christian leadership: 1. Trustworthiness, 2. Caring, 3. Ability, and expounded on each of these attributes.

Each person had entered their name on a piece of paper and dropped it into a box and I had Matthew draw out 3 names to win some nifty prizes. First, Bro. Blakely, was drawn and he received a nice Starbucks coffee cup with hot chocolate mix. Next, Bro. Frank Robert's name was chose and he won a Starbucks gift bag with coffee mug and assorted treats. Our grand prize went to Pastor Dave, as his name was drawn last and he won a nice necktie and a bag of Krispy Kreme Coffee.

It was a very successful meeting and each attendee seemed to really enjoy themselves. I am already looking forward to and planning next year's Coffee & Christ Men's Fellowship. If you were not able to attend this year then make plans now to be there in 2011.
