INTO THE BREACH VIDEO SERIES - Authentic Masculinity
2026-02-14 08:30 - 21:30 | St Joseph Catholic Church Downers Grove, IL, 4801 Main St., Downers Grove, IL, 60515, United States
One of the most impactful episodes in the Into The Breach series is titled “Authentic Masculinity.” In this video, men are invited to rediscover what it means to be authentically masculine according to God’s plan, as opposed to the flawed definitions society often presents.
We’ll explore the key takeaways from the “Authentic Masculinity” video and how they can help men of faith embrace their God-given identity, live with purpose, and become the men they were always meant to be.

Saturday February 14th 2026
8:30 am to 9:30 am ( After 8:00 am Mass )

2026-03-19 08:00 - 17:00 | Illinois State Capitol Building, 401 S. 2nd Street, Springfield, IL, 62701, United States
Mark your calendar! The Illinois Pro-life March is tentatively scheduled for Thursday, March 19th at the Illinois State Capitol in Springfield.

When thousands of us gather to march for life, we send a powerful message to our legislators: Illinois stands for life, and we will never stop advocating for the protection of preborn children.

We’re honored to be joined by inspiring pro-life voices, including Bishop Thomas Paprocki, a steadfast pro-life champion from the Springfield Diocese.

Every year, we march around the Capitol, then meet with our legislators to speak up on the most pressing life issues facing our state. Your presence makes a difference—in the streets and in the halls of power.

Register TODAY for updates. We can’t wait to stand with you in Springfield!
