Into the Breach -Knights of Columbus
What does it mean to be a man today? Most of us have probably asked ourselves this very question. We all want to lead fuller and more powerful lives – to be better men, better husbands and better fathers – but sometimes it can be difficult to know how.
That is why the Knights of Columbus has produced a video series inspired by Bishop Thomas J Olmsted’s apostolic letter “Into the Breach”. This series should help us become stronger men, improve our relationship with God, with our wives, with our children and grandchildren, and with the entire community.
Come join us to learn and discuss what it means to have ‘Catholic Masculinity’ on November 20 at 7:00pm in the O’Day Room. The event is sponsored by the Knights of Columbus, St. John’s Council 1013.
