RANCH 2025 | JULY 9-13, 2025
The Ways of the Fathers is the only completely Catholic introduction to rites of passage into manhood. This six week experience helps men build the local bonds that cultivate a real Catholic culture that can be passed on to future generations.
Renew your faith and your devotion to your God through prayer, the Sacraments and holy friendships.
Ranch is a perfect setting to grow closer to your sons and get to know them on a deeper level.
Life often distracts us from the things that matter most. This is a time to choose and stick with it.
