MARYSVILLE – Many men will be retreating to their man caves this weekend to watch the Super Bowl.

But come Tuesday, many of those men and others will retreat to the Word of Life Lutheran Brethren Church for the 8th H.U.G.E. Men of God Forum.

Like the name implies, the event is huge. And it’s free.

Hundreds of men attend the all Christian denomination event. It will go on from 6:45 to 8:45 p.m. every Tuesday for the next four weeks.

Speakers will be from different local churches with the purpose of ministering to men of our community to help them be what God intended them to be. Worship music will be provided by the band Frontline. Food will be available at a low cost. The church is located at 9828 51st Ave. NE.

The event started Jan. 27 and continues until Feb. 24.

H.U.G.E. stands for Honoring God; Unifying men; Growing in Christ; and Equipping disciples. It is a nonprofit men’s group that partners with 20 local churches. About 350 men are involved in H.U.G.E., which began in 2005.
