The Archdiocese of St. Louis Catholic Men for Christ is excited to announce our 2025 Conference:


CALLED TO FREEDOM


Join men from across the Archdiocese for a day of fellowship and iron sharpening iron as our speakers reflect on  what it means to be free from sin and the social pressures we are faced with each day: “For you were called to freedom, brethren; only do not use your freedom as an opportunity for the flesh, but through love be servants of one another“


As always, our talks will focus on our 4 conference pillars of Conversion, Reconciliation, Discipleship and Evangelization.  Don't miss this day where we are called together as a community and then sent out to impact the world around us. 


Catholic Men For Christ is made possible through the generous support of the Annual Catholic Appeal.
