It's difficult to be who God has called us to be in today's world. How do we follow Jesus while also leading others? How can we strike a balance between the obligations of job (or education) and the duties of home? How can we love our spouses (and others) in the same way that Christ loved the Church?
To discover how to be "God's men" in today's culture, come to a casual atmosphere where men may enjoy excellent instruction, engaging conversation, and getting to know other men on the same journey.
Every Wednesday evening from 7:00 to 8:30 p.m. the Men of the Eucharist gather in the parish Library.
For more information contact, Mike Schulte.
