As many men of the parish know, this annual archdiocesan event is typically attended by over 800 men on a Saturday in February. Due to the on-going pandemic, the event this year will be presented in a virtual format on Saturday, February 20th. In addition, the event this year is available for FREE! The formal program specific to St. Louis will be presented this year as a half day morning event. In cooperation with Virtual Catholic Conference - a national organization - registration will also give men access to over 50 other on-line speaker presentations dur-ing the weekend of Feb 20-21. With registration on the website www.CatholicMenforChrist.org, men can either watch from home or participate in 'watch parties' in their local parishes. Assumption will be hosting a watch party in the church lower level. All COVID precautions will be taken with limited space available, so please bring your mask! Feel free to also bring your own personal drinks and/or snacks. Whether you have attended this event in the past or never before, all men are welcome!
