Bishop Perry's Chicago Catholic Men's Forum "Authentic Christianity Lived" will take place in about two weeks on April 23, 2022. To register and for more details, please visit: http://cmcsmen.net/registration “We are proud to offer a few hours of respite, prayer and solid input to men across the Archdiocese on how they can live faithfully the implications of their baptism and discipleship in Christ for these times.” ~ Most Reverend Joseph Perry of Chicago This is the Men’s Conference for men in the Archdiocese of Chicago, and promises to be the best that you have experienced from Catholic Men Chicago Southland (CMCS)! We have a seat for you, because it turns out this is a busy day for Catholic men: There is a Deacon meeting in one of the Vicariates, as well as the Illinois K of C Convention. So this means there are more seats to fill that usual ... CMCS has a practical way of evangelizing catholic men young and old, and their families, of helping them to understand what the culture often rejects – how men and women should relate to one another in complementary ways and how important husbands and fathers are to children. Since 2004, CMCS has reminded men and helped them to do what is in their power to do: to be holy and courageous, to improve their marriages, to be better fathers, to grow in virtue, to serve the needs of others more generously, to be a better citizen.
