Join us on Friday, October 10, 2025, at 7:30 PM at Mayflower Congregational Church for the first-ever Men Sing Grand Rapids. 450 men will come together to sing Psalms from The Psalter and beloved traditional hymns, all to the glory of God. The full program will be revealed for the first time when attendees receive the liturgy at the door.
Let’s fill the church with voices of praise—invite your neighbors, colleagues, brothers, uncles, and friends to be part of this special evening!
The church will be filled with men, so unfortunately, there is no space for women in person. However, women can enjoy the event via livestream on YouTube: @mensinggrandrapids.
Entry is free, but please register via the link below.

Where it started
Inspired by Mannenzang Katwijk and Hamilton Men’s Sing in Ontario, we now bring the powerful tradition of men’s choir singing to Grand Rapids. This tradition brings reformed believers together through song, all to the glory of God. Psalter 370: How good and pleasant is the sight, when brethren make it their delight to dwell in blest accord.
Since it is a men’s sing, only men of all ages are allowed in the church. Others can watch the livestream on our YouTube channel (@mensinggrandrapids).
