Hockessin United Methodist Men
The group is led by Tom Morgen, Dennis Barrowclough, and Kevon Goodwin
They are calling all men interested in helping others and enjoying good Christian fellowship! The Hockessin United Methodist Men's group is turning a new page and looking for some new members as they begin their activities this fall. Watch for bulletin announcements from Tom Morgan, Denny Barrowclough, or Kevin Goodwin, the leaders of the newly formed union between the former Methodist Men and CSI groups. United Methodist Men have a reputation for service to others while growing their personal faith. Plan to be part of this great new group in our congregation.
