Teleios

The Name “Teleios” is a Greek word which means “adult, full grown or mature.”

In Matthew 5:48, Jesus says: “Ye must be teleioi [masculine plural] as your Heavenly Father is teleios [masculine singular].”

Teleios is a ministry founded to help men reach maturity in Christ through building bonds of friendship with other men. We utilize weekly small group meetings, prayer retreats and service opportunities as vehicles for growth and maturity in Christ. The groups help men bring greater balance to their lives, positively impacting their relationship with Jesus Christ, their family, career, workplace and community. Teleios was incorporated in 1980 and was a natural culmination of founder Connie Jacobsen’s work at Fuller Seminary, his many years with Young Life, and his ability to establish rapport with men.
