Strengthening Dads begins TUESDAY, September 23, and meets monthly on the third Tuesday* of each month from 6:30-8 pm, September to April. The cost for the class is $25 (scholarships available).
Strengthening Dads is a place for men who are in the midst of raising children. Men who like all of us, realize that marriage and parenting is hard… especially when you desire to do it well. You will experience men that you can build friendships with who are in your season of life, and be encouraged with practical and Scripture-based equipping and mentoring. Dads with children of all ages are welcome!
We have two options to offer:
Monthly Gathering and Mentoring: When you register for this, you will attend a monthly gathering that will feature a catered dinner, time to connect and meet other men, a practical talk focused on helping you intentionally grow as a husband and father, and then some Q/A. You will also be placed in a group with other men who are your age and stage who desire to meet with a mentor once a month outside of our monthly gathering. This will be a group of 3-4, designed to help you wrestle with how to apply these things more in your life, as well as a place for you to get encouragement in the places where you feel like you're failing and/or really struggling. Once assigned, your group will choose a day and time that works best for you to meet monthly outside of our Tuesday night gathering.
Please Note: Mentor group spots fill fast and there are limited spots. These will be placed on a first come first serve basis due to limited mentors and a desire to keep these groups smaller.
Monthly Gathering Only: When you register for this, you will be registered for the monthly gathering alone. You will not be assigned to a mentor group. The monthly gathering will remain open all year; however, you do have to register to join because of meal and resource prep. Once you register, you are set for the 2025-26 year.
