Dear men who love God,

My name is Scotty Morrison. I have been a homeowner in Lehighton for 14 years, but working in New Jersey and attending church in another town, I hardly knew anyone in Lehighton and the surrounding area.I once made the joke that in having a pickup, a beard and a Cabela's jacket, I at least LOOKED like a local.But then something very bad happened at the church I was attending. So bad, I would not attend ANY church for over six months. But then I heard about a men's group, a Christian men's fellowship and Bible study, that met in Lehighton Recreation Center on the first and third Saturdays of the month at 8 a.m., and I started attending.I met a small group of men who were not afraid to share from their heart of events in their life, as well as how the particular study we were doing affected them.I have NEVER met such a group of Christian men so close and open with each other and feel very comfortable being myself around them.I throw out an invitation to you all to come and join us.Through this group, I heard of a Christian Fellowship Breakfast that meets at the Beacon 443 Diner in Lehighton on the second and fourth Saturdays of the month at 8 a.m.On the second Saturday, the group is called the Body of Brothers - on the Mountain. Men from churches come from as far away as Brodheadsville for an hour and a half of fellowship, devotions and, of course, breakfast.On the fourth Saturday at 8 a.m., men from just a few local churches gather for the same thing.I am not writing this invitation just to see the attendance grow. Christian men, especially in today's society, need the fellowship of other believers. I believe that such fellowship will strengthen the community of believers from all local churches.Now, through the Bible study and breakfast fellowships, I have become acquainted with and feel a part of the community of the men and churches of the Lehighton area, and have even become a part of the local prisonministry.For that, I am grateful to God and again extend the invitation for you to join with us.In his service,Scotty MorrisonLehighton
