 THE
G. ROSS FREEMAN LEADERSHIP AWARD
The G. Ross Freeman Leadership Award Program
was created by action of the Southern Jurisdiction
Conference Presidents of United Methodist Men
in June of 2001.
The purpose of the Award is to strengthen United
Methodist Men Fellowship in local churches by
honoring pastors who inspire men in ministries
of evangelism, missions, and spiritual growth.
Mission Statement
We Believe . . .
Men are discovering
that God wants to use and empower them in ministry.
Many pastors are inspiring
men with a passion and
pointing ways for them to find personal fulfillment
and strengthen the church.
We believe that all pastors will benefit
from mentoring
men as disciples of Jesus Christ and calling them
into ministries of evangelism, missions and spiritual
growth as an essential part of their responsibility.
We believe that unless the pastor finds
ways to encourage men in the local church, their
participation will be minimal and their commitment
to God's mission will be undeveloped.
We believe that if the pastor supports
the Fellowship of United Methodist Men, the organization
will be an instrument to inspire and teach and
enlarge the vision of men and thereby strengthen
the
total church.
We believe that pastors who guide and
share in the ministries of men should be recognized;
therefore:
The Mission of the
G. ROSS FREEMAN
LEADERSHIP AWARD
is to encourage ministries of
United Methodist Men in
evangelism, missions and spiritual growth by
honoring pastors
who inspire men
in these areas.
