4M IS A WORLDWIDE MOVEMENT OF MEN

The 4th Musketeer movement (4M) was born in the Netherlands, sparked by a woman’s idea. Ruth Stoorvogel, one evening in September 2007, questioned her husband, Henk, about the need for something extraordinary for men beyond conventional men’s ministries. This simple inquiry became the catalyst for the 4M movement.

Henk, seizing the opportunity, gathered his closest friends for a visionary dinner at his home, where they conceived a novel concept inspired by D’Artagnan, the iconic figure from "The Three Musketeers."
