COR Men’s Ministry

The World Needs Courageous Men to Witness Jesus Christ

In a world marked by distraction and isolation, Cor calls men back to what they were created for: a deep relationship with God and authentic brotherhood with one another. From the beginning of his ministry, Jesus formed men in community—walking with them, teaching them the Truth, and sending them out together on mission. Cor continues that model today.

A Brotherhood Rooted in Christ

Through Cor, men grow together as disciples of Jesus Christ. Walking side by side in faith, they support one another through life’s challenges, grow in holiness, and are strengthened to live out their vocation as sons of God.

Faith Lived Boldly

Sponsored by the Knights of Columbus, Cor helps Catholic men live their faith in service to their families, parish, and community. Families need strong husbands, fathers, sons, and brothers, and the world needs courageous witnesses to Jesus Christ. Cor forms men to lead with faith, integrity, and purpose.

Formation, Prayer, and Fraternity

Every Catholic man is called to bring Christ to a wounded world. Cor supports this mission through:

• Prayer and the sacraments

• Ongoing faith formation

• Strong, authentic brotherhood

Each Cor gathering is designed to help men encounter Christ, grow in virtue, and be equipped for evangelization in daily life.

More Than a Men’s Group

Cor reflects the way Jesus formed his disciples—through relationship, formation, and mission. In addition to this Ministry, the Knights of Columbus offers meaningful opportunities for men to put faith into action through charitable service, becoming living witnesses of Christ’s love.

What is COR Like?

• Flexible: Each gathering follows a flexible framework of prayer, formation and fraternity. The content, order and length of each part are tailored to what works best for the group.

• Consistent: Cor is held on the second Tuesday of each month for 60-90 minutes.

• Intentional: Christ-centered brotherhood doesn’t just happen. It requires intentional structure, commitment and time to build trust, respect and support.

All men are welcome. Come walk with us.

Cor is collaborative and open to all men of the parish and is not meant to replace existing ministries, but to strengthen and complement them. We are proud to sponsor and serve as the Men’s Ministry of St. Cecilia Parish, helping men grow in holiness and respond together to God’s call to leadership and mission.
