celebrate

Join us on the afternoon of February 1st, 2025 for our official Blazing the Way campaign celebration at the newly-renovated Brothers' House in Orlando. 

Together, we are raising $3.5 million to Blaze the Way for this generation to renew the Church. Through the incredible generosity of more than 300 families, we have already expanded our outreaches nationwide and improved our chapel in Orlando. 

Join us for mass and fellowship as we celebrate the incredible ways the Lord has provided for the Mary of the Annunciation Chapel at our house in Orlando. Families are welcome!

Our first Brotherhood of Hope Retreat, open to all friends, alumni, and family of the Brotherhood will be this coming June 20-22, just outside Boston! This retreat will bring together Brotherhood “alumni” in the broadest sense of the word: former students, young adults past and present, participants in other ministries, and friends of the Brotherhood and our mission. 

Partnering with the Northeastern University Catholic Center Alumni and Friends Association, this retreat will provide time for prayer, sacraments, adoration, fellowship, and more! Designed with families in mind, childcare will be provided for all kids 0-17. The retreat will be held at the Embassy Suites in Waltham, MA.

• Support families who cannot pay for the retreat on their own

If you can't attend the retreat (or even if you can), but want to make a donation to help someone else attend the retreat, your support is appreciated!
