| The King's Men |
www.thekingsmen.us |
| The Warrior Brothers: A Special Forces Unit of The King’s Men is dedicated to an in-depth adventure of becoming leaders, defender-protectors, lovers and mentor-guides. We develop men to be authentic husbands, fathers, friends, workers, professionals and apostles. Warrior Brothers uses a dynamic integration of Catholicism, science, and military methodology to develop happy, healthy, holy masculine men. The internal and external dimensions of the person and his manhood are incorporated, and the principle that grace builds upon nature is acknowledged. Therefore, we focus on the complete man with a gradual exploration of the neurobiological, psychological and spiritual dimensions of masculinity. |

| Magnificat |
| www.magnificat.net |
| Convenient
pocket-sized publication offers Morning and Evening Prayers,
Mass readings, lives of the saints, spiritual direction,
and more. Highly recommended:
"I
just want to thank you and be sure you know what you mean
to countless military families. You can't imagine the
comfort MAGNIFICAT brings to my son when he is on maneuvers
for many weeks at a time and unable to get to Mass because
there are no Catholic chaplains to come out to the field.
It is a permanent part of his pack- right next to dry
socks. On the base he attends Mass several times a week
and leads a rosary prayer group every Thursday night.
There is a very devout priest who ministers to the base-
but in the field you are the only connection he has to
the Mass. May God bless and multiply all your efforts."
Free complimentary issue availalbe upon request.
