Our Purpose PDF Print E-mail

Men_telunas.jpgJust as “Iron sharpens iron, so one man sharpens another. /Proverbs 27:17”, we represent the Men of IBCS and strive to serve the Church and each other, to be the best husbands and fathers we can be and to be faithful and stalwart servants of Christ.
  
We are a mixture of cultures, races, age, newcomers and locals, CxO’s and students, from all walks of life, handymen, golfers, fishermen, fathers and husbands, friends and brothers.

We have irregular events that all Men are invited to, although generally, we cater to the 20 and above year olds. Some of the events are:

Gokarting (Permas Jaya in JB) – our lap record is 47sec set by Murray Jones
Golf, Paintball
Weekend retreats at Telunas
Speaker events
Work parties (at the Church and elsewhere)

          

We are also taking the Men’s Fraternity Program see separate link.

(Updated 2 May 2009)

Men’s Fraternity was designed to help men come together and strengthen each other through weekly sessions that combine biblical teaching and small group interaction. These time-tested resources have been used all over the world to equip men to make their pursuit of noble manhood a lifelong priority. For more info on the program, see here: http://www.mensfraternity.com/

  

Men’s Fraternity:

Is not a church service or Bible study – there is no singing.
Is for Men only (adults, young adults)
Is than just a rally or a Bible study, Men’s Fraternity provides men with an encouraging process that teaches them how to live lives of authentic manhood as modeled by Jesus Christ and directed by the Word of God.

Telunas7 is 8-10 May.

The time for the Men's Retreat at Telunas (Telunas 7) is quickly approaching! It is an event you won't want to miss: a unique and rustic retreat center next to a beautiful beach on an Indonesian island; a time to plug-in, connect and re-charge on many levels. Sign up now!

People will be going to Telunas in two groups. One will be leaving at 9:20am on Thursday, 7 May and the other will be leaving at 6:10pm on Friday, 8 May. You will need to be at the Harbour Front ferry pier an hour before departure time.

Plans include:
- sessions to stimulate and challenge you spiritually, under the theme "Wild at heart – rekindling the heart of a man: a battle to fight; a beauty to rescue; an adventure to live".
- lots of opportunities to relax, fish and play
- for those bringing their sons, there will be crafts, games and adventures designed to help instill Christian themes and principles
- great food and good fellowship

Close to 100 men at IBC have gone to Telunas over the past few years, with most having gone several times. Ask around and you will find that it is an event that you won't want to miss.

           

Telunas Beach is a rustic but boutique collection of over-water buildings with lots of breeze. There’s a great beach for kids and swimming although visibility for snorkeling is limited. Has diving platform, beach volleyball and bonfire area and jungle forest. Accommodation is dorm-style with modern bathrooms. It’s peaceful; no karaoke or hawkers; our group is often the only guests there. For more information on the venue, see: www.islandconnections-intl.com.
