Into the Breach Committee Info

Deepen member spirituality and formation to combat crisis of religious faith in our world. In his Apostolic Exhortation, Into the Breach, Bishop Thomas J. Olmsted outlines the challenges faced by men of faith in the world today. Into the Breach is a call to battle for Catholic men which urges them to wholeheartedly embrace masculine virtues in a world at crisis. Councils will institute men's study groups to read the Apostolic Exhortation Into the Breach and use copies of the Into the Breach Booklet and Study Guide as a resource. By reading and discussing Bishop Olmsted's inspirational words and the accompanying study guide with like-minded men of faith, councils will prayerfully examine the enormous breach in the battle line that lies before them. In doing so, they will begin to devise a personal plan of spiritual battle.
