Trinity Mount Barker

Many years ago, I was a skinny young kid in Boys Brigade in Darwin.  I was a member of the "Sensational 7th NT, Sanderson" as our wonderful leader, the late Paul Gillam used to call us.  In those days, which seem like a lifetime ago, we learned to recite The Object of Boys Brigade "The advancement of Christ's Kingdom among Boys, and the promotion of habits  of Obedience, Reverence, Discipline, Self-Respect, and all that tends towards a true Christian Manliness."

On reading the Adelaide Men's Convention website in preparation to register for AMC 09 I discovered the stated goals of AMC.  These are some great goals for a conference to have, and as it happens, I thought they are really just like a grown-up version of the Object of Boys Bridage!

    Men growing strong in their commitment to the Lord Jesus.
    Men giving God-honouring leadership in marriage, family, church, work and community.
    Encouraging vital men’s ministry in the local church.
    Men winning men to Christ.
