Our Story

There were so many young boys in my neighborhood that were fatherless so, I started a young men bible study at my home. Throughout discussing the bible and personal growth in them I learned that these young boys didn’t have a positive male role model on their lives. This fellowship began to grow and was taken to ST. James Christian church and began to expand even more. This began from Boys to Men to M.E.N.(Men Empowering Nations).

Mission

The Mission of Men Empowering Nations is to impact the lives of tomorrow’s leaders who live in the Sicklerville, Camden County area and beyond. We accomplish this by delivering unique and innovative Bible-based mentoring initiatives that are locally relevant to develop young men who understand the beneficial importance of positive thinking, responsible personal conduct, respect for themselves as well as others and to remain focused on the importance of participating in and giving back to the community.
