Men's Group All men are invited to a new Men’s Group at St. Anthony’s. This will be held on the 2nd and 4th  Saturday of each month starting on November 22nd. Fellowship, coffee and breakfast will begin at 8:00 AM followed by enrichment, prayer and discussion from 8:30-9:30. We will be working through the “Into the Breach” video series. Into the Breach from the Knights of Columbus seeks to answer what it means to be a Catholic man in today’s world. This series tells men they are made for greatness and challenges them to achieve it by founding their lives on God and pursuing heroic virtue. Each episode explores a different aspect of authentic Catholic masculinity, features well-known Catholic speakers, and a personal story of a man who has deeply experienced the episode’s topic in his own life.

Discipleship Quads A Discipleship Quad is a group of four people who journey together as disciples through weekly gatherings of fellowship, ongoing conversion, and learning. Several parishioners from St. Anthony's have gone through this program (some more than once!). More information can be found here. Contact Jessie at the St. Anthony parish office for more information or questions.
