“The mind is not a vessel to be filled but a fire to be ignited.” – Plutarch
Education should be available to all, but to billions, it is not within their reach, either because of geography or financial means.
Join us, Encounter Ministry, to help educate one student at a time, starting with kids in Kenya, and make a lifelong difference by doing so.Students Thankful for the Support

ABOUT US
Encounter Ministry (operated by Men of Purpose, LLC)
OUR STORY
The Encounter Ministry is operated by Men of Purpose LLC, a 501(c)(3) non-profit Christian ministry organization founded in 2014 in Northern Nevada.
The original purpose for founding the organization was to establish a means for bringing a Men’s Encounter to every church in the Sparks/Reno area. Since then our ministry has expanded throughout Nevada, California and all the way to Michigan and back. With Encounters planned in Alabama, Texas, and Ohio, we are intent on reaching the entire nation and God willing the world.
As we have grown we have developed Women’s Encounters, and are soon bringing Marriage and Youth Encounters to several regions. We deeply believe it is our purpose to offer men and women the opportunity to passionately serve their spouses, families, and churches.
The Encounter is just one facet of our ministry that establishes us as a partner for local churches in areas that include compassionate care, counseling, and discipleship in order to fulfill our original mission of serving every community in Christ.
