With the exception of one winter day in 2005
when the parking lot was not cleared, this group has been meeting every Wednesday
morning since May 1971 at the First Presbyterian
Church of Irwin. We are an interdenominational group of 40 to 50 Christian men
from over 10 churches that are eager to learn more
about the Bible. With the leadership of Bill Snyder, Rev. Larry Dunster, and
others this group has grown from an original cast of half a dozen men. We meet at 7:30 AM sharp till 8:30 AM in the
Perry-Armstrong addition learning from the best
professional leaders in our area. The Reverend Bill Wood is our current teacher
and does an excellent job teaching us about the Bible.

After their fellowship the men gather in
the social room for a hot breakfast

At 8:45 we invite you to the social room where
the ladies of our church cook the finest breakfast that you can eat for a
nominal donation of $5.00. What a great way to start your day. We invite you
to join our group each Wednesday morning.

Dilly Miller and Maureen Presseau are amongst
the women in the kitchen preparing breakfast |

Staying late and talking religion and
other topics are (l to r) Henry Yohman, Ted Fulem, Rev. Bill Wood and
Myron Elder. Bob Holstine can be seen crossing in the background. |

In addition to learning more about the Bible,
the group holds mid-week devotions, sings hymns and prays for people with needs.
We do not take an offering; however, with
God's leadership, and in conjunction with the Norwin Ministeriam, we sponsor 7
Wednesday noontime Lenten Services at the Fist United Church of Christ in Irwin.
The clergymen who are members of our Fellowship lead the services and various
members of the group provide music selections for these services.
Following each of the Lenten services, the
women of the First United Church of Christ serve a luncheon for a nominal fee.
