| ABOUT
US - We evolved out
of the Palm Beach County Task Force that was supporting the South
Florida
Promise Keepers activities
and
continually seeking revival in our community across ethnic and
denominational
lines. We continue to support the Promise Keeper agenda.
Born as the Palm Beach County Task Force, four men shared a dream that was originated at several Promise Keepers Conferences. The first chairman, David Alexander had his dream ignited at the 1993 Boulder Conference. Another Brother, Joseph Lounders also went to the same conference and the two connected when they returned. However, God's timing was different and so no real organization was able to take place. In 1995, Jorge Baro' and Ernie Kamber came back from the St. Petersburg Conference on fire. They connected with David and Joseph and the four of them began to meet for lunch and prayer. Soon after they decided to begin a weekly prayer breakfast at Shoney's in Lake Worth; one that continued until Shoney's went out of business at that location. God began to bring others in for prayer and fellowship and the Task Force was born. They shared a dream of Promise Keepers to come alongside local men's ministries and help in any way they could. One immediate way was to conduct Keyman and Ambassador training sessions and over the years, many such sessions have been held. In 1997, the leader, David Alexander decided to be more of a Promise Keeper at home and stepped down. Ernie Kamber was elected as the leader and presently serves in that capacity. The leadership felt that the organizational name did not properly reflect the mission of the organization, thus seeking the Lord's guidance in a new name. The result was the present name of "Godly Men of Integrity Ministries" along with the present logo. Our focus remains the same as shown by our purpose statement. However, God continually opens new avenues for our ministry and one that we tried to fulfill in 1998 was to be a funnel for information on events such as "Stand in the Gap" and the last two Promise Keepers Conferences in St. Petersburg. We
remain committed to fulfill whatever
role our Heavenly Father has in mind for us and to Him be all the
glory,
honor and praise! And we invite all like minded men in our county to
join
us. Godly Men of Integrity Ministries
