NEW! The CMCS 'Manhood Monday' Archive is a feature that creates a landing page for all of these newsletters to be stored and shared in one place. Unlike sharing our emails on Facebook or Twitter, our Archive is your own private stash of emails we’ve created in the past few months.
Each entry has its own URL so you can reference or share them on an as-needed basis.

CCC 1657 It is here that the father of the family, the mother, children, and all members of the family exercise the priesthood of the baptized in a privileged way “by the reception of the sacraments, prayer and thanksgiving, the witness of a holy life, and self-denial and active charity.” 170 Thus the home is the first school of Christian life and “a school for human enrichment.” 171 Here one learns endurance and the joy of work, fraternal love, generous—even repeated—forgiveness, and above all divine worship in prayer and the offering of one’s life. (1268, 2214-2231, 2685)
