"St. Joseph, help me to be like you. Help me to be obedient to the teachings of the Church and faithful to God's commands. Help me to patiently endure my cross each day. Let me be a model of holiness and a pillar of virtue. I solemnly promise to embrace God's will and I accept the challenge to work tirelessly for my family's salvation. Be my guide and companion on this journey. St. Joseph, Terror of demons, pray for us."
Men of St. Joseph
The Men of St. Joseph is an group of Christian men, united under the Catholic Church, who meet Tuesdays to pray together and encourage one another to be the spiritual leaders of their families. The purpose of the Men of St. Joseph is to inspire and equip men to be spiritual leaders in their homes. Some might say our goal is a bit "lofty": become stronger in our relationship with Christ and in our faith so we can help get ourselves and our families to heaven. It's a bold purpose, but in the end what else really matters?
FIND SUPPORT TO GROW YOUR FAITH
Finding support for your newly found or even lifelong pursuit of Catholicism can be a challenge. Need help being affirmed in your daily walk, in gaining new wisdom or in becoming a better man?
STRENGTHEN YOUR MARRIAGE
Want valuable wisdom on how to strengthen your relationship with your wife? Or need to know what the Catholic Church teaches? Or how to live a life that is Christ centered?
FOSTER FAMILY VALUES
Need encouragement to discover new ways to engage yourself, your wife or your children to live and understand your faith every day?
ENGAGE YOUR COMMUNITY
Looking for ways to become an active participant in your Catholic community or to aid others by showing them how to live the Catholic faith and how it can help them live happier and holier lives?
We know every man needs support to attain these goals. The Men of St. Joseph have worked hard to create an environment where you can thrive, grow and become the spiritual leader God intended you to be. If you are interested, start by attending a meeting.
We meet Tuesdays 7-8am in the St Anthony room to pray for the intentions of various members of the group, read and discuss the Gospel reading for the upcoming Sunday and dismiss. In the course of the prayer intentions and scripture discussions we support one another in our effort to become the "best version of ourselves" and to be the spiritual leaders of our family and faith community.
