Men's Ministry: EGEIRO (Rise Up)
Our Mission Statement:
By way of formation, fraternity, and fellowship, EGEIRO aims to equip men with the tools needed to embrace their masculine identity as son, husband, and father, in order to live out their missionary calling in the world. Commitment to Christ’s teachings, brotherly bonds, and service to the Church, lie at the heart of what we value and who we are.
EGEIRO meaning;
- to arouse, cause to rise
- to arouse from sleep, to awake
- to arouse from the sleep of death, to recall the dead to life to cause to rise from a seat or bed etc.
- to raise up, produce, cause to appear
