TESTIMONIES

  • "My favorite Haven memory was the Haven men basketball tournament because i got to engage with my brothers in Christ over a physical activity we all bonded over and I ended up winning an Amazon gift card!! I really just had to leave it to God and he did what he always does! God bless the Lord almighty!"

  • "My favorite haven men memory was when I was able to speak to my boy Dolapo about how I was struggling with trusting in God and he prayed over me and we sat there and talked about our interest in music for like almost an hour after"

    - ANONYMOUS STUDENT

  • " I went to 10 different bible studies my freshman year around UT and Haven Men was my favorite hands down! My first meeting I met Surree, Solo, Vittorio and the rest of the leaders. Talking about the need of brotherhood just like how Moses had Aaron and Hur was a well needed message for me during that semester. I enjoyed the cordial energy throughout the meeting and starting/closing off with prayer"

  • "My favorite memory is my only one. My faith is something l've always struggled with. Perry invited me to the last meeting and I was touched by the community. Though as with most faith things I kinda felt like I didn't belong or like I was lacking something. To know God’s presence and to have a relationship with him is something l'd like and seeing more testimonies would strengthen my faith :)"

  • "My favorite Haven Men memory is when I was able to open up to my boy Perry about how I was struggling to strengthen my faith in God. We prayed together, read Bible verses on strengthening one's faith, and talked about how to become more consistent with reading the Bible for an hour"
