“United Methodist Men has made me what I am in Jesus Christ, today,” keynoter Joe Kelley revealed. Citing John 15 the Louisiana UMMen leader said, “We have to love others before we can be about loving ourselves.” He went on to ask the group how it can support others who don’t have fathers or the presence of men in their lives. He wondered, “How can we put our arms around their shoulders?” and answered by saying, “We are called to be those people who will walk the walk of Christ with them…and keep on keepin’ on.” He also encouraged everyone to “be involved in some Christian service…all the time!”
