What Does Authentic Masculinity Really Mean?



Brothers, Our culture offers plenty of conflicting messages about masculinity—but very little wisdom. On Saturday, March 14 , men from across the region are invited to a Men’s Morning of Reflection exploring authentic masculinity through the lens of St. John Paul II’s Theology of the Body . Theology of the Body reminds us that: “Man becomes an image of God not so much in the moment of solitude as in the moment of communion.” This morning will help men reflect on:
• Identity as sons of God
• Masculinity rooted in self-gift, not dominance
• Communion, vocation, and responsibility
• Living holiness in ordinary life Presenters include:
Hannah Shafer (Theology of the Body Institute)
Fr. Nikolai Brelinsky (St. Joseph the Worker Parish) Event details:
🗓 March 14, 2026
⏰ 8:00 AM – 12:00 PM
📍 Marian Catholic High School, Tamaqua Mass, coffee, and donuts are included.
The event is free , but registration is requested. If you’ve ever felt the tension between faith and modern masculinity—this morning is for you. Register today by scanning the QR code. Men Alive in Christ

Live Rosary This Wednesday



In turbulent times, we turn to prayer.
The world feels unsettled, and our families face challenges from every direction. In moments like these, the Lord calls us to Himself with even greater urgency. Amid the noise and division, lasting hope and peace can only be found through prayer. The Rosary is one of our most powerful spiritual weapons in the battle against evil.

The Diocese Commission for Men invites all men and their families to join our Monthly Rosary on the third Wednesday of every month at 7:00 p.m. Together, we will pray for peace in our nation and world, for an end to war and terrorism, and for more vocations to the priesthood and religious life in our Diocese and throughout the Church.

Our next live Rosary is this Wednesday, February 18th, 2026, at 7:00 p.m.
Come pray with us—and bring your family.
