Men of the Cross – Freedom in Forgiveness

March 8, 2025

 

A Catholic men’s movement inspiring men to live out their Baptismal call by igniting and intensifying their love for Jesus Christ and His Church.

Our relationship with Christ is many things. He is your refuge, someone to celebrate your joys, mourns with you in your sorrows, and is the one to break the chains that bind you and set you free. What are the chains that bind you? The world tries to convince you that the baggage you carry is not too heavy, and that you probably deserve to carry that burden. But that is a lie. Christ wants you to be set free. There is Freedom in Forgiveness! Maybe you have been carrying around the same burden for a long time. Maybe you really don’t understand forgiveness, how to forgive others, or how to forgive yourself. You may have forgotten what it feels like to be free. Join men from all over the Diocese of La Crosse and beyond, to experience Freedom in Forgiveness through Mass, inspiring talks, honest discussion, and fellowship. The Church needs men to live free allowing them to help other men break the chains that bind them so they may also live the joy filled life that Christ wants for us.
