United Methodist Men Hold National Gathering at Belmont
The 2009 tenth national gathering of United Methodist Men is being held July 9-12 at Belmont University.

“We are excited to welcome the UM Men to the Belmont campus,” Belmont President Dr. Bob Fisher said. “Their rich tradition of faith, fellowship and community fits perfectly at Belmont, which has been the site of Christian education since 1890. Anytime we can welcome esteemed groups to campus with values similar to Belmont’s, we are honored to do so.”

The Rev. David Adams, top staff executive of the General Commission on UM Men, the agency that plans the event, is a graduate of Belmont. “It is an honor and privilege to partner with Belmont University for our 10th National Gathering of UM Men,” said Adams. “The beauty of the campus and close proximity of the facilities are ideal for this event.”
