We’re pushed and pulled in a thousand directions by responsibilities, stress, loss, and by joys. Where can we find time to reflect on the loss and gain of our lives? For all men—young, old, and in between. Join our group over coffee or tea for life affirming discussions and prayer to find God in our lives and to make a difference in our own worlds. Hybrid.
