✨ Resilience & Grit Workshop Recap – Claiborne Parish Library ✨

This past weekend, our young men had an unforgettable time learning, laughing, and growing together at the Boyz 2 Men LA Resilience & Grit Workshop.

From the Bounce Back Ball Toss to building towers, obstacle courses, and sharing resilience tips, the boys discovered that setbacks aren’t the end—they’re the beginning of a comeback. 💪🏽

They learned that:
Resilience means bouncing back when life knocks you down.
Grit means keeping your eyes on your goals, even when it’s tough.
A respectable, dependable man is one his family and community can count on—because he doesn’t quit when challenges come.

Through scripture, activities, and group sharing, each young man was reminded: “For though the righteous fall seven times, they rise again.” (Proverbs 24:16) 🙌🏽

We are so proud of the energy, honesty, and determination these boys showed. They walked away knowing that every failure is feedback, every obstacle is training, and every setback is a setup for a stronger future.

📣 Together we shouted: “Try, Try Again!” And now they know: “I will try, try, until I reach my goal!”

🚨 Workshop Update 🚨

Due to a scheduling conflict at the facility, tomorrow’s Resilience & Grit Workshop will be postponed.

👉 We’re working with the team to lock in a new date—tentatively Saturday, Nov. 1st (same time). We’ll confirm soon and repost details so everyone stays in the loop.

In a way, this delay is fitting—Boyz 2 Men’s “Resilience & Grit” is being tested right along with us. As the saying goes: “Faith that’s never tested can’t be fully trusted.”

Thank you for your patience and support. Stay tuned—this workshop is still on the way, and it’s going to be worth the wait! 💪✨

🌱 Strength without faith is fragile. Faith without grit is unfinished.

At the Resilience & Grit Workshop, boys will learn how to lean on God’s Word and their community while building the determination to keep going.

Through team challenges, roleplay, and scripture, we’ll show them that resilience is more than toughness — it’s faith in action.

Parents — don’t let your son miss this chance to learn how to stand tall when life gets tough.

After our last workshop, a parent asked why we don’t divide boys into separate age groups. Here’s our heart behind it:

💡 Our original plan was to separate by age, so each group could receive the message at their level. But as a volunteer program with limited resources, and with fewer boys participating than we hoped, we’ve chosen to bring all ages together.

Here’s what that means for your son:
✅ Mentors use clear, age-appropriate language.
✅ We constantly check for understanding and feedback.
✅ Every boy, no matter his age, leaves with lessons he can apply.

And here’s our commitment:
📈 As more parents and young men join us, we will divide into age groups to sharpen the impact even further.

⏰Until then, we’re making the most of every resource, every volunteer, and every moment — because your son’s growth matters too much to wait.

💥 Parents, Our Boys Are Under Attack — But We Can Equip Them to Stand Strong! 💥

Every day, our sons face pressures that test their character, their confidence, and their future. Too many young men are giving up before they’ve even begun.

That’s why Boyz 2 Men, Inc. is hosting the Resilience & Grit Workshop (part 2 of a 8 part series) — a one day, event designed to teach boys ages 7 & up how to bounce back, push through, and never give up.

📅 Saturday, October 25, 2025 🕘 9:00 AM – 1:00 PM 📍 Claiborne Parish Library, Homer, LA

Through roleplay, team challenges, and real life lessons, your son will learn:
✅ How to handle setbacks without quitting
✅ How to build confidence and responsibility
✅ How to lean on faith and community for strength

Parents — don’t wait. Give your son the tools to rise above.

🙏✨ Grateful Beyond Words ✨🙏

I can’t stop smiling as I think back on our very first Character Development Series Workshop (1 of 8)—focused on Accountability. God truly showed up in the room, and I’m so thankful for every person who made it possible.

To our B2MLa mentors—thank you for pouring into our young men with wisdom and patience. To the families who came out—you reminded me why this work matters. To Brookshire’s and the Coca-Cola Plant—your generosity filled both stomachs and hearts. And to the Claiborne Parish Library—thank you for giving us a home for this vision to grow.

💡 Impact: In this session, our young men boldly identified their dreams and goals (Self- Ownership), then wrestled with the real barriers that could stand in their way—peer pressure, fear of failure, lack of support (Follow-Through). Most importantly, they discovered strategies to overcome those obstacles: leaning on accountability partners, staying grounded in faith, and making intentional choices that align with their future (Making It Right).

This is just the beginning. I’m excited for the next seven workshops, and I believe God is going to use them to transform lives in our surrounding parishes/communities.

💬 Parents, This message is for you.

We know some of you may hesitate to bring your sons to our Boyz 2 Men Workshop Series because you fear others might think, “If I show up, people will believe I’ve failed as a parent.”

Let us remind you of this truth: there is only One Judge — Jesus Christ. No one else has the authority to define your worth as a mother, father, or guardian, but HIM.

Bringing your son to this workshop is not a sign of weakness or failure. It is a sign of strength, love, and wisdom. It says:
• “I care enough to invest in my child’s future.”
• “I want my son surrounded by mentors who will reinforce the values I’m already teaching at home.”
• “I believe in giving him every tool possible to grow into a man of integrity.”

This is not about judgment. This is about community, consistency, and Christ centered growth.

So don’t let fear hold you back. Bring your son. Walk with us. Let’s raise up young men who will lead with accountability, resilience, and faith.

📅 Our journey begins September 20th.

🛡 We Don’t Quit on Our Boys

"8 Steps to Manhood" Series

At Boyz 2 Men, Inc., this isn’t a one‑time, two‑time “see you when we see you” program. We are here for the long haul — walking with our young men month after month, year after year.

This upcoming Character Development Workshop Series (Sept 2025 – April 2026) is just the roadmap. From Accountability in September to Mentorship & Community Engagement in April, each month is a step toward building men of integrity, grit, and purpose.

And between these dates? We’ll still be here — with extra activities, check‑ins, and support whenever it’s needed. Because becoming a man isn’t a single event… it’s a journey.

📅 Mark your calendars — the first step begins September 20th.

💔 “I never thought it would be my son… until it was.”

It doesn’t happen overnight. It’s one missed conversation. One ignored warning sign. One moment when you think, “He knows better.”

And then — one bad choice. Now the whole room is waiting to hear from him… and you’re wishing you could turn back the clock.

Parents — we can’t afford to wait for the world to teach our boys what it means to be men. The Accountability Workshop is a chance to give them the truth, the tools, and the brotherhood they need before the crisis comes.

📅 Saturday, Sept 20 | 9 AM – 1 PM 📍 Claiborne Parish Library, Homer, LA 📞 318-523-1011 | 🌐 www.boyz2menla.org

Don’t wait for regret. Give him the gift of guidance now.

📢 BOYZ 2 MEN, INC PRESENTS: ACCOUNTABILITY WORKSHOP Boys will be ???… held accountable.

💬 A man is not defined by age, strength, or status. He’s defined by his willingness to own his actions, stand in the truth, and lead with integrity—even when it’s hard. Sadly, too many boys today are told they can “be men” without ever learning what accountability is. That’s why we’re stepping in.

On Saturday, September 20, 2025 | 9 AM – 1 PM, we’re gathering at Claiborne Parish Library to plant seeds that will grow into strong, responsible men.

This is not another sit-and-listen event. It’s an experience:

🎭 Real-life role play that puts them in the driver’s seat of tough decisions
🤝 Team challenges that build brotherhood and trust
🧭 Guidance from seasoned mentors who live out the values they teach
🛠 Tools to lead at home, in school, and in the community

📍 Claiborne Parish Library, 909 Edgewood Dr, Homer, LA 71040 📞 Call/Text: 318-523-1011 📧 Info@boyz2menla.org 🌐 www.boyz2menla.org

Parents—if you’ve been praying for direction with your son… this is your moment. Mentors—if you know a boy who needs strong guidance, don’t let him miss this.

And if you’ve ever felt the call to guide, teach, and model integrity for the next generation—this is also your invitation. Boyz 2 Men, Inc. is looking for men ready to step up and join us as mentors or volunteers in any capacity you are gifted/skilled. If your heart is for young men, we have a place for you.

👉 Tag someone. Invite someone. Let’s raise men who stand tall—not because they’re perfect, but because they’re accountable.
