2017 MSP Fun Fest with Dunbar Kids
Starting in 2014- Men Standing Positive began working alongside Principal Coleman and the students at Dunbar Elementary. MSP Fun Fest is not just your average free event with live music, food and a bounce house. It’s an event designed to reach the students with a positive message through music. So not only do they have a great time but they leave having learned why they need to remain in school, why they need to respect authority and so much more. The students also hear that they are the agents of change to reach their local community and it all starts now- even while they are in elementary school.

2017 MSP Effective Evangelism Conference
Many people consider the topic of evangelism to only apply to pastors and a skill only mastered by religious schooling and formal training. Both of these viewpoints are not accurate- the Bible clearly gives countless examples of men and women who effectively evangelized many people and led them to Christ. These individuals were not pastors, trained in school nor did they hold degrees- they were everyday people just like you and I. Their lifestyles spoke of Jesus- in words and actions. Multitudes saw the authenticity and love that filled their daily lives. Every Christian is called to evangelize and it’s not intimidating or difficult as one might think.
Please just Men Standing Positive Saturday October 28th for the 2017 MSP Effective Evangelism Conference from 3pm to 6pm at Hopewell Missionary Baptist Church in East St. Louis, Illinois. Paztuh Mike Wuebbles will be bringing a candid message with practical instruction on how to reach those you meet who don’t know Christ. Watch below for further details. Invite your friends and RSVP today! For more info, please call 314-690-3077 or email events@menstandingpositive.org.

JOIN OUR 2017 VISION
Dear Potential Personal Partner,
Throughout this life you will have numerous chances to make a difference in the lives of others: your family, friends, and total strangers. Right now, Men Standing Positive is offering you the opportunity to reach entire low-income communities in a powerful way using our unique system. Founded in Saint Louis, Missouri, our mission is to empower and inspire people by bringing wholeness, change, and a peace of mind through various community outreaches, events, and programs.
Men Standing Positive strategically acts as a third party filter to screen and connect the individual/family to the resources and help they need. We partner with those who provide homeless shelters, drug and alcohol rehabilitation, temporary housing, counseling, job training, utility assistance, domestic violence programs, spiritual development and more. The goal is to successfully unite the individual with the appropriate available resource(s); therefore strengthening and building the community as a whole.
In addition, Men Standing Positive also reaches out and connects with neighborhood churches in the local community before we do our outreach and events. Our policy requires that we cannot connect an individual/family with job training and assistance programs until we first place them in a church home. A dedicated church family is absolutely vital for support, love, and encouragement as the member seeks to follow God, resolve major life issues, and also obtain other necessary help and training. Our unique system works to help people in every area possible: spiritually, emotionally, and physically.
Men Standing Positive believes that impact starts one individual at a time. We want to connect with people, such as yourself, who desire to make a difference in lives across the city. We are currently active in low-income communities throughout North St. Louis City, South St. Louis City, East St. Louis Illinois and Washington Park Illinois reaching men, women, and children of all ages. Men Standing Positive regularly sends updates by way of email, mail, website, blog, and social media so you can see where your money is going. We are a fully certified 501(c)3 organization so any donation amount is fully tax-deductible, appreciated and valuable.
We are currently preparing for 2017; gathering startup funding as we build our staff and prepare for this year’s outreach and events. If you would like more information please email- partner@menstandingpositive.org or call 314-690-3077. To make a donation online via PayPal- Click Here. Or write a check out to ‘Men Standing Positive’ and mail to P.O. Box 39459 St. Louis, MO 63139-8459. We cannot make this year happen without our dedicated personal partners like you! Join us in changing one person, one city, one nation at a time. Thank you for your consideration!
Merry Christmas & Happy 2016!!!
The closing of one year and the beginning of the next marks a period of significant transition. For Men Standing Positive, 2015 brought about many difficulties, shifts, and also victories. God has a plan and He is always good. This year the team spent their time in Ferguson, South City, Soulard, and in East St. Louis, IL. Over 22 people accepted Christ this year and we were able to place several others in church homes and programs for additional assistance. Below are a few highlights of 2015 we wanted to share with you-
- In the spring, we created and released our very first video testimonial, called the ‘MSP Transformation Report’. Sean’s life was radically changed over a couple months as he attended Mission St. Louis’ Job and Leadership Training Program; graduating at the top of his class in the fall of 2014. Mission St. Louis is just one of the many programs we partner with to help reach people and transform lives. Be on the lookout next year for the testimony of a woman instantly set-free from depression, self-harm, and a suicide attempt. In a few short minutes, the truth of Jesus changed her life forever. We can’t wait to share her story with you.
- After many years and piles of paperwork, Men Standing Positive receiving their 501(c)3 certification in July 2015. This will open a variety of opportunities in the near future with corporations, small businesses, and other organizations.
- Last but not least, MSP gained two new sponsors- Concept Remodels and Saint Louis Christian College. Both have already assisted us in many ways- from monetary contributions for advertising, meeting facilities, event support, and more. For additional information on each please visit the Sponsor page on our website or blog.
We cannot thank our partners, sponsors, and volunteers enough for all they do to help make the mission and vision come to life. Without your support and involvement, none of this would be possible. So thank you! The Men Standing Positive team is extremely thankful, blessed, and eager to see what awaits in 2016. But until then, we hope you have very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year with your families and friends! May God bless you this new year and always.
Love, The MSP Team

2nd Annual MSP Fun Fest with Dunbar Kids// Event Highlights
Saturday November 21st, 2015 was the 2nd annual MSP Fun Fest with Dunbar Kids and it marked the final event of the year. It was a very brisk wintry day, so attendance was lower than expected, but everyone who came out had a blast; from the the smallest child to the oldest adult. Saved, St Lien, and MiNiMe did a fantastic job performing on stage as DJ G kept the music blasting. Over 25 people showed up to volunteer and gave generously of their effort and time. Four people gave their life to Christ and several others were able to fill out a Hot Sheet for additional assistance.
Men Standing Positive would like to thank the follow organizations and individuals: Concept Remodels for the advertising sponsorship, the Rock Church in Soulard for the free clothing and Thanksgiving meal, DJ G with New Life Music, Blanks Bounce House, East St. Louis School District 189, Dunbar Elementary School, and Principle Coleman for the facility, gift baskets, and support. And last but not least, to everyone who came out- participant and volunteer, without everyone working as a team this event would not have been possible. The Men Standing Positive team can hardly to wait see what next year has in store for Dunbar Elementary and the kids! Be on the lookout for the highlight video coming soon, and read below for what some had to say about MSP Fun Fest 2015! Click Here to View the Photos!!
‘Til Next Year…See You on the Streets!
As an educator, I encourage my students to ‘pay it forward’. They had a chance to see words turn into action. The Fun Fest was just an inspirational sight to see. MiNiMe is awesome and I look forward to volunteering next year.
~S. Keeler, PLD Teacher
Fun Fest was awesome! I think it’s awesome that MSP finds a way to reach the community. One thing that they always do is feed people. Even if it’s just a bag of chips. It’s funny how food brings people together. Not only that, but the sound is always great. There just seems to be joy and peace in the atmosphere whenever MSP throws an event. You can’t say that about every ministry. I have done events all over the city and I’ve seen a lot of things. A ministry that is consistent will stand long. My hat goes off to MSP and what they do for the city. MSP Fun Fest was nothing different. It is what is to be expected from MSP! Any event full of Jesus, full of God, full of joy, full of love, full of peace, and smiles.
~ St. Lien, MSP Fun Fest Artist
This is by far my most favorite event of the school year. Not only does it allow me the opportunity to fellowship with members of the community, but MiNiMe is such an inspiration and motivation to the students. His ability to leave such a profound and long~lasting impression is truly something to be admired.
~C. Coleman, PLD Principal
Matthew 25:34-40 “Then the King will say to those on His right, ‘Come, you who are blessed of My Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world. For I was hungry, and you gave Me something to eat; I was thirsty, and you gave Me something to drink; I was a stranger, and you invited Me in; naked, and you clothed Me; I was sick, and you visited Me; I was in prison, and you came to Me.’ Then the righteous will answer Him, ‘Lord, when did we see You hungry, and feed You, or thirsty, and give You something to drink? And when did we see You a stranger, and invite You in, or naked, and clothe You? When did we see You sick, or in prison, and come to You?’ The King will answer and say to them, ‘Truly I say to you, to the extent that you did it to one of these brothers of Mine, even the least of them, you did it to Me.’
Matthew 25:21 “His master said to him, ‘Well done, good and faithful slave. You were faithful with a few things, I will put you in charge of many things; enter into the joy of your master.’ ”
He can say it better than I. Great work for His Kingdom. Glad to be a part.
~G. Collins, The Rock Church in Soulard Volunteer
It was refreshing to see a young artist give back to the community. Everything was top notch and I can’t wait until next year.
~C. Johnson, PLD Parent
