Men's Groups
Men's Ministries at Orchard Christian Fellowship offers many opportunities for men to grow in Biblical manhood, serving Christ at home, at work and in the community. We offer many Bible studies that meet throughout the week. We also have many events throughout the year. Below you will find the events we have scheduled for the fall.
Faithworks
Faithworks is a ministry that creates teams of men who volunteer once a month to perform home maintenance and repair work for single mothers, senior citizens, and women with spouses serving overseas in the military. For more information, visit the Faithworks page.
Men's Fraternity
The Men's Fraternity is made up of several local congregations as well as residents of the local communities. We will be gathering to learn about "Winning at Work and Home". This 16-week program will start on January 27th and we will be meeting every Wednesday 7:00-8:30 PM at Londonderry Christian Church. We look forward to meeting you. For more information, visit the Men's Fraternity page.
OCF Men's Sowing Club
Check out our latest ministry for men - The Men's Sowing Club. The Men's Sowing Club's mission is to fellowship with Brothers in Christ and to sow seeds of faith within our community, with our families and with our friends in the name of Jesus.
Men's Pornography Addiction Support Group
For Men Only (FMO) is an accountability and support group for men struggling with pornography addiction and related issues. These accountability groups of 10-12 meet weekly under the leadership of Godly men who have experienced sexual addiction and the healing process and mind renewal made possible only through the Lord. Individual support and prayer are a start to health and recovery but the growth and maturity needed for freedom from addiction are increased significantly through authentic barrier-free communication with other like-minded men.

Bible Studies
High Ground Bible Study
The Orchard's Thursday Night Men’s Bible Study begins a new Chip Ingram study on January 28th entitled "r12: True Spirituality." Using DVD messages and a study guide from Chip Ingram, "r12" refers to understanding and living out what a "Romans Chapter 12" Christian is. Join us any Thursday night from 7:30pm-9:00pm in the front conference room at the Robie House (enter the Robie house at the rear and turn left once inside). Come grow with us in faith and Christian leadership! For questions or further details, contact Peter Coffin at:
Wednesday Warriors
Wednesday Warriors is an early risers men’s group, meets every Wednesday morning, 6:30 a.m. at the Robie House. This would be a great time to join us! We begin a new study on January 27th. This will be a DVD series, and should generate a lot of excellent discussion and growth for all who attend. We will be watching "That the World May Know" by Ray VanderLaan. Contact Bruce Lewis for more information using the email below:
ACE Hardware Men's Group
ACE Hardware used to be the brand name that the Benson's hardware store used before they changed suppliers about 5 years ago or so. About 3 years prior, a small group of guys got together on Saturday mornings from 7:00 a.m. - 8:30 a.m. to look at various topics relevant to a man's walk with God. While other men's groups happened during the week, travel, home responsibilities and such kept small group participation "off the grid". Today, ACE Hardware still meets on Saturday morning's at the Robie House from 7:00 a.m. - 8:30 a.m. and men still meet to look at relevant topics as we seek God's direction in our lives and build connections among guys.
Starting Saturday January 30th, ACE will be launching a new study of Bob Buford's book, "Half Time". This book recognizes that often the first "half" of a man's adult life is focused on pursuing success. Starting as early as the late 30's, guys that have been around for awhile start to reflect. Is this all there is? Do I want to continue my current track?.. or is there something else? What is the "something else?" How do I incorporate those changes going forward?
If this time slot works for you, consider ACE as your place. Questions? Contact Robert Holland at
