WHAT? HOW? WHY?
Hello,
On May 15–16, we have a new Manhood weekend ahead of us – we are continuing 4th cycle “Man and His Work”.

1. TOPIC – TRAPS
Identify what’s holding you back, and break free from it.

Description:
There are things that don’t just distract you—they quietly take control.
Work. Money. Comfort. Or maybe you’re just living on “autopilot,” where the days pass but your direction fades away.

The biggest danger?
It’s not that you’re doing something wrong. It’s that you’re gradually drifting away from what really matters.
God’s Word says, where your treasure is, there your heart will be. Sooner or later, this begins to shape your entire life.

This weekend:
• We’ll identify what’s really holding you back
• We’ll see where we’re wasting our energy
• We’ll talk about how to regain clarity, direction, and inner strength

👉 No masks. No acting. Real men’s conversations in God’s presence.

2. TOPIC – CATALYZERS
What truly accelerates your growth.

Description:
When you stop running in circles, the question arises: how do you move forward?
Growth doesn’t depend on how much you do, but on what shapes your inner self.
Because the greatest changes don’t start from the outside, but when you begin to build on a solid divine foundation.

During this session, we’ll discuss:
• How to discover your strengths and not bury them
• How to act purposefully, rather than just keep busy
• How to create a life that has meaning, not just results
• How faith in Jesus becomes not an “add-on” but the foundation of daily life

Principle: “From everyone who has been given much, much will be demanded” (Luke 12:48).
The question is, how do you use what has been entrusted to you? We’re not talking about perfection, but about growth—real, solid, inner growth.

👉 Less talk. More purposeful action.

WHAT IS IMPORTANT TO KNOW?
It is extremely important to participate in all weekends of the cycle so that you can hear all the topics. Then the weekends will be much more meaningful. Let’s all come with the attitude, “I want to be available to God.” Let’s participate from the beginning. We encourage you to arrive on Friday – it’s better to leave early so you don’t get stuck in traffic and arrive on time.
Being around other men and sharing your life, walking and supporting each other, is an essential part of the journey of manhood. Therefore, we encourage you to join existing men’s home groups or start your own group (please inform the leaders this weekend or the church administration), as well as join the WhatsApp group 300🔥 and attend church meetings on Sundays.
During the weekend, the team of ministers will serve with prayers and personal conversations related to the weekend’s themes. There will be worship and testimonies.

PLEASE BRING:
– Sleeping bag and mattress for overnight stays
– Earplugs for sleeping (we will also have some available on site)
– Hygiene items
– Bible, notebook, writing materials
– Sportswear and bath wear
