PCMF

The origins of the Presbyterian Church Men’s Fellowship (PCMF) can be traced way back to the General Assembly of 1973, resolution 1154. However this resolution on the idea of beginning of the matters pertaining to men was not accepted until the General Assembly of 1987 revived the matter of establishing the men’s organization under minutes 3835. It has been realized that the majority of church men, apart from those who are deacons or elders did not have a recognized form or spring board from which their individual and corporate contributions could be utilized in the church.The aim of forming a new organization as stipulated in the GA of 1973 resolution was:
i. Bringing men together
ii. Be a united Christian force
iii. For fellowship
iv. For exchange of ideas concerning matters of faith, witness and service to Jesus Christ and other men.
v. Exploiting their talents in serving God.
The PCMF has since become an appropriate avenue where men are able to re-examine their faith in Jesus Christ, their witness and service to God and for fellowship. The fellowship endeavors to be men’s united force in matters covering faith, witness and service to god and to glorify Him at all levels of church life, by participating in church activities as individuals and also to the community and nation.
