United Methodist Men

Picture
This organization was initiated by the United Methodist Church in 1996 with the mission of helping men in grow in Christ so that others might learn about Christ. The branch of the UMM at Englewood UMC pursues this mission through regular meetings, involvement in a variety of mission projects, and ongoing fundraising efforts that support a number of ministries.

The UMM group meets on the second Tuesday of each month, with the exception of June and July when they do not meet. These meetings feature a meal prepared by members of the group, as well as a program presented by a group or organization in the community or in the church. Men of all ages are welcome to attend. 

The main fundraiser for the UMM is the sale of peanuts, which are prepared on-site at the church. This fundraiser was started to help fund the building of the church in 1955. Members would cook the peanuts in their kitchens at home, until the creation of the Peanut Shack here at the church. There are several cooking teams within the UMM who rotate shifts, cooking peanuts year round. Our peanuts are shipped around the world and are also available in the church office.
