🗓️ Date: Saturday, November 21, 2026

🎤 Inspiring Keynotes: Hear from dynamic guest speakers on authentic Catholic manhood inspired by our Lady Mary.
🍽️ Sustenance: Breakfast and lunch included.
🤝 Fellowship: Connect and grow alongside fellow men in the faith.
🙏 Spiritual Renewal: Opportunity for Mass with Bishop Schlert, Reconciliation and a number of fine vendor tables.
“No place on earth will ever be completely free of crosses: if we had no crosses, we would not have the chance to gain heaven. Therefore, let us not try to avoid the cross too much, and if we need to take it on our shoulders, let us carry it willingly out of love for Mother Mary. He carried His Cross first. She stayed with Him there. That is why we go to her when our own load feels too much. She does not take His place. She helps us stay close to Him.”
—Saint Maximilian Kolbe
Join other men on November 21st to learn how staying close to Mary helps you be strong for your families, friends, and all others with whom you interact. Manly strength comes from being childlike, and remaining near Mother Mary; she never lets go of her Son, or you.

We look forward to seeing you there!
