Members from the GBB (Grace Brethren Boys) National Board and members from the National SMM (Serving My Master) Cabinet met on in Rittman, Ohio on Saturday, April 12 to discuss their respective ministries. Their purpose was to educate each other about the ministries and to discuss the reasons they believe in gender-specific ministries.
GBB is a ministry of men mentoring boys, while SMM is a ministry of women mentoring girls. Both organizations are affiliated with the Fellowship of Grace Brethren Churches.
Rob Gable, director of boys’ ministry for GBB, and Viki Rife, director of girls’ ministries for Women of Grace USA, arranged the meeting because they realized their ministries had common challenges and opportunities. By exchanging information and ideas, they hope to strengthen both ministries.
