Weekly Bible Studies
Currently the men's ministry runs two weekly Bible studies, one on Saturdays 7:00 - 8:30am on the first floor of the ECC Center and one on Sundays 6:30 am - 7:30 am on the first floor of the ECC Center. The purpose of these studies is to give the men in our church a sound biblical foundation for every aspect of life. Many men can testify that those bible studies have had tremendous impact on their walk with God.
Weekly Prayer Meetings
Our "Brown Bag Prayer Meeting" is on Thursdays from 12:30-1:15pm at the church office conference room and we focus our prayers on men's issues as well as the spiritual well-being of the church. More prayer meetings will be planned in the future to offer more convenient times for men.

Annual Men's Retreat
This usually takes place in mid-February. The goal for the annual retreat is to have men pull back from the daily hustle and bustle of life and have a concentrated time of fellowship with the Lord and with other men. It typically takes place in a course of two days in which we sing worshipful songs, listen to featured guest speakers, and enjoy food and fellowship with one another.
The last retreat took place on February 17-18, 2012 and feaured speaker Anwar Sawaya who shared on Developing a Kingdom Vision.
Men's Breakfast
We usually have those every five to six weeks on a Saturday morning in the basement of the church center. This has become a popular event among the men as we serve a hearty breakfast usually consist of scrambled eggs, pancakes, sausage, bacon, etc. and we invite a guest speaker to came and share God's Word with us. This event has helped men in our church to bond together (especially those who are doing the cooking) as well grow in their walk with God.
Special Events
The men's ministry is in the process of planning many special events that are geared to those who are not part of the church. This is the outreach part of the men's ministry the the larger community of Abu Dhabi.
