In 2915, Bishop Thomas J. Olmsted of the Diocese of Phoenix issued a challenge to the men of his diocese – to step into the breach. His exhortation, Into the Breach: An Apostolic Exhortation to Catholic Men, identifies the crisis of faith facing the Church today and presents a vision of the role of Catholic men in combatting it. Inspired by Bishop Olmsted’s vision, the Knights of Columbus have produced a 12-episode video series, also titled Into the Breach. Each episode focuses on a different aspect of authentic Catholic masculinity and features interviews with well-known Catholic commentators and follows the personal story of a man whose life illuminates each theme. All men of the parish are welcome as we share in the discussion on the topics and close the evening in prayer beginning on Thursday, September 17 at 6:30 in the Annex Meeting Room.
