Exodus90 Men's Group

The Saint Agnes Exodus90 men's group will be starting up again on January 5th. The intention of this group is to gather as group of men who are intent on strengthening their relationship with Jesus through prayer, fasting, fraternity, and ascetic practices. This accountability program starts up 90 days before Easter and helps in the effort to release ourselves from the slavery of the convenience of our modern world, to true freedom in strengthening our ability to say no to this world and yes to Christ (The Promised Land). We meet every Friday morning at 5:30am in Schuler Hall followed by an optional 6:30am Mass in the Chapel. If you have any questions and/or interest please reach out to Joseph Olson at 651-925-8803 or email at jolson@saintagnesschool.org.

RSVP here for the Saint Agnes group - https://forms.office.com/r/PdWbK1T6tx

Join us for a trial meeting at any time. We meet every Friday at 5:30am in Schuler Hall.
