Apr 25 2023 Fishers of Men About Fishers of Men As Fishers of Men, we actively respond to Christ’s exhortation to the first apostles and to all members of the Catholic Church. Christ came to St. Peter and St. Andrew, saying to them, “Follow me, and I will make you become fishers of men,” (Mark 1:16). Inspired by this call, Peter and Andrew dropped everything and followed Christ, the One who would teach them how to be true fishers of men. Similarly, as a brotherhood, we live our daily lives with the goal of detaching ourselves from the world so we can dedicate our lives fully to Christ’s call. We take the joyful message Christ proclaims in the Gospel and seek to share it with others. Furthermore, we strive to truly know, understand, and follow the teachings of the Catholic Church so we can reveal it to the whole world and be true fishers of men. < BACK TO HOUSEHOLDS
Apr 25 2023 Praecursores Verbi Be sure to watch to the end for bloopers Our Identity As the men of Praecursores Verbi, we aim to cultivate a life of virtue and holiness built on the example of St. John the Baptist. With a life centered around the Liturgy, we seek to pursue sacrifice, joy, and justice as true Christian men through prayer, recreation, and brotherhood. We unite ourselves to the Chruch by participating in the sacramental life, upholding the Truth, and rejoicing when She rejoices and fasting when She fasts. In doing so, we recognize our lives are not wholly our own, and we declare the words of St. John the Baptist, “He must increase; I must decrease,” (John 3:30). In our journey towards sanctity, we turn to the patronage of St. John the Baptist, the example of St. Therese, and the protection of Our Lady of the Immaculate Conception. < BACK TO HOUSEHOLDS

Apr 25 2023 Filii in Filio Our Identity As the men of Filii in Filio, we strive to make the first two commandments of loving God and loving our neighbor central to our lives. Christ came into the world so we could become sons of the Father through His Sonship. With these two commandments in mind, we acknowledge God’s invitation to enter deeper communion with Him and with each other as we endeavor to live as His adopted sons. As a community of brothers, we recognize the importance of living a life of holiness centered around all Christ has revealed to us, which we pursue through service, Christian brotherhood, and chivalry. Thus, we maintain a constant focus on love and service towards God and our neighbor. We look to the intercession of St. Joseph Terror of Demons, St. John the Beloved, the Immaculate Heart of Mary, and Our Lady of Knock. < BACK TO HOUSEHOLDS

Apr 25 2023 Ardens Virtus Be sure to watch to the end for bloopers Our Identity As the men of Ardens Virtus, we lay claim to the truth that at the moment of baptism, we are filled with the Spirit and equipped for battle. The Fall left us in a position where we must fight, suffer, and die for love. We do not uphold passivity toward the threats of the world but strive to meet those threats by riding forward in the light of truth: our complete weakness and the total strength with the Lord on our side. Instead of living the life of a coward, we cling to a life built on prayer, sacrifice, and brotherly love. As a brotherhood, we understand the war over the human heart is not to be faced alone and we actively love and support those in the heart of this battle. < BACK TO HOUSEHOLDS
