I'm working on 1462, a pastor arrested for possession, distribution, and creation of CSAM (AI) and looked at his church site. This is their page for the ministry to men.
I know I am stereotyping, but a church doing its ministry at a gun range sounds like one where you would find predators.

Be watchful, stand firm in the faith, act like men, be strong.

Men’s breakfast meets on the 3rd Saturday of every month at 8:00 a.m. for a time to eat, worship together, be instructed in Scripture with a devotional, and encourage one another in prayer. Contact Randy Raney.
