Manhood Monday
Your weekly dose of  "Living the Goodness of a Catholic Man".
July 12, 2021
Part of our mission at Catholic Men Chicago Southland is fostering Catholic men in personal holiness, to make Jesus Christ the center of our daily lives. One of the best ways to live out this spiritual journey as Catholic men is to learn the Fundamentals of our Faith. Here is some inspiration to get your week started!

Alleluia

R. Alleluia, alleluia.
Blessed are they who are persecuted for the sake of righteousness,
for theirs is the Kingdom of heaven.
R. Alleluia, alleluia.

 

 

“God sustains the world, in good times and in bad. Catholics, along with many others, believe that only one person has overcome and rescued history: Jesus Christ, Son of God and Son of the Virgin Mary, savior of the world and head of his body, the church. Those who gather at his cross and by his empty tomb, no matter their nationality, are on the right side of history. Those who lie about him and persecute or harass his followers in any age might imagine they are bringing something new to history, but they inevitably end up ringing the changes on the old human story of sin and oppression. There is nothing “progressive” about sin, even when it is promoted as “enlightened".
 
The world divorced from the God who created and redeemed it inevitably comes to a bad end. It’s on the wrong side of the only history that finally matters. The Synod on the New Evangelization is taking place in Rome this month because entire societies, especially in the West, have placed themselves on the wrong side of history.”
 
-- Francis Cardinal George – from “The Power of the Cross for Catholic Men”

"If a priest does not care about souls, he becomes useless.'
-- Cardinal Robert Sarah
Likewise, Bishop Perry, and all of the Priest's and Deacon's involved with CMCS, care about souls, in your roll as a Catholic man and 'priest' of your household, known as the domestic church
