1 IN 12 MEN HAS THIS SERIOUS HEALTH PROBLEM
Diabetes leads to blindness, stroke, heart disease, impotence and death. It is the fifth deadliest disease in the U.S., and accounts for $1 in every $10 spent on healthcare. Approximately 8.7% of all men over 20 in America have it. Worse than that, 1 in 3 of those men doesn’t even know it.

Help your men learn to love God with all their heart, mind, soul and STRENGTH! Encourage them to lead a healthy life.

HOW WOULD YOU LIKE TO HEAR THIS IN YOUR CHURCH?

...a lot of spouses [are] asking their husbands, "What happened to you this weekend?" A lot of children are getting a whole lot more encouragement from their fathers! From the bottom of my heart, I thank you for your personal commitment and teachings to a wonderful group of brothers.

This is exactly what the men of Dixonville needed. They entered in spiritually hungry, thirsty and dry; they left refreshed, energized and encouraged! In fact, they want to do this twice a year!

These are just two examples of the awesome feedback we have gotten from churches hosting a Man in the Mirror weekend seminar. On average, 1/3 of the men will make a commitment or recommitment to Christ, and 2/3 will join a follow-up group for six weeks.

END OF THE YEAR SPECIAL! From now till Christmas, get a 25% discount off the scheduling fee for any event scheduled for 2006! That’s like being able to reach 25 additional men or getting $300 back to help your men's ministry!

PK 2006 SCHEDULE AVAILABLE
Many men remember the first Promise Keepers event they went to. For many, it was life-changing. Don’t miss the opportunity to bring a group of men to a rally near you in 2006. The updated schedule is available now at www.promisekeepers.org. From New York to California, Michigan to Texas, PK will be all over the country in ’06.

As you are organizing your men to go, don’t forget to think about what you’ll do after the event. The worst thing you can do is get your guys spiritually revved up and then fail to give them a next step. Need ideas? Start with our online men’s ministry mini-course: http://www.maninthemirror.org/ltc/courses/mini-course
