Men's Ministry is a fellowship of men of all ages who strive to bring faith into daily life. We have found that this fellowship enriches our relationship with God and each other. We follow a simple method of reflecting on the weekly Gospel, joining in small groups to discuss it's relevance in our daily lives , and inspiring each other to be accountable to our Christian values.
We invite you to share the experience with us. A growing number of men have found this to be a special part of their faith life and we believe you will as well. We are part of a growing network of Men's Ministry groups throughout the country and see this as a work of the Holy Spirit in the lives of men, helping us be better husbands, fathers, sons, brothers and friends.
We Invite You To Join Us!
We meet on Saturday mornings at 8 AM both in-person (2nd and last Saturdays of the month) and via Zoom (every Saturday). Contact [email protected] and you will receive the meeting ID and Password.

St. Mary's Men's Retreat
Holy Family Passionist Retreat Center, West Hartford
March 17-19, 2023
Each year St. Mary's has a designated Holy Family Retreat weekend in West Hartford. This retreat gives us an opportunity for Brotherhood and Fellowship to Reflect, Rejuvenate, and Refresh our spirits. Come for the weekend or for a day, just come! All are Welcome, where ever you are on your journey. Bring a friend, brother, father, son or grandfather!
Themed Retreat: Missing Peace
Just before he departs this earth, Jesus says to his friends: "Peace I leave with you, my peace I give you… Let not your hearts be troubled or afraid." (John 14:27) Peace is something we crave but rarely find for more than a short time. This season at Holy Family, we’ll explore the theme, A Missing Peace, in the hope that together, through prayer, presentations, and discussions, we can come closer to understanding how to achieve the peace Jesus meant for us to have, and equally important, to share in our families and in our world.
The retreat begins with a buffet dinner from 6:00 to 7:30 p.m. on Friday evening and concludes Sunday with the celebration of Mass at 10:45 a.m. followed by a hot brunch at noon. Families of retreatants are most welcome to attend the Sunday Mass and brunch at no extra charge.
Join us on Friday morning of your retreat weekend (any time after 9:00 a.m.), check-in early, enjoy some quiet time and a nurturing lunch, and settle in before the retreat begins.
Offering: $350; more if you can, less if you can’t.
