There is no more effective evangelization tool than regular, everyday people choosing to live their faith in their homes, councils, community, and parish. Through our programs and resources, we provide opportunities to live and spread the Catholic faith. To learn more visit our parish’s Council 5272 representatives in the courtyard.

Illuman is a journey of illumination for men seeking transformation and aspiring to become what they are meant to be, in order to do they are meant to do. All men are invited to learn more about speaking and listening – from the heart, with the heart, spontaneously and with brevity.

​In this gathering we will examine the four established guidelines of the Way of the Council –the native tradition of group facilitation in which we gather in circle to be seen, heard, and deepened.

The prompts for this gathering will in fact be centered in the very guidelines of the Way of Council itself –speaking from the heart, listening with the heart, speaking spontaneously, and speaking with brevity.

​This gathering will introduce the Way of Council process to those who are unfamiliar with the it, but who have a desire to be participants in council in the future --or who are interested in doing a Men’s Rites of Passage. We will also discuss and practice how to be effective facilitators of Council for those who are experienced in Council and would now like to lead Council.

Bring a lawn chair, drums, warm clothing.
Lunch will be served. $20 donation is appreciated.
Hosted by Padre Serra Men’s Ministry.
