Five Core Principles – open to all men, free of charge, always held outside, peer led in a rotating fashion, we end in circle of trust (COT).
Mission statement is to plant, grow and serve small workout groups for men for the invigoration of male community leadership.

COT: I lost both of my parents over the last two years as well as a couple of aunts and an uncle. Some of them could have had a chance at more life had they been going to the doctor regularly as early detection of some health issues is critical. Statistics show that 41% of people haven’t been to a doctor in the past 5 years and 39% state they don’t go because they are afraid of what might be discovered. My message was that that is the exact reason you go regularly. The minor inconvenience of getting treatment (medications) by far outweigh the alternative. At the end of the day, your family needs you and we need you in the PAX! I closed by imploring those in attendance to take the first step by making an appointment.
Hooahled us in prayer.
