Every young man longs to be a part of something great. To be a part of a legacy, a long line of tradition, and eventually leave something behind for the next generation.
What seperates a good Catholic man in todays society is one who has discipline and leadership in his spritual life and relationship withe the Lord, takes care of his human body through exercise, challenges his intellect trough study, and sharing his gifts with others through pastoral care.
