"Many of us in later years wish that, when we were younger, someone would have told us about certain things, often certain books that, as we look back on them, would have greatly helped us in the project of our lives, in particular would have helped us know the truth of things."
— James V. Schall, S.J.
A Bourbon & Books group of 5-8 men creates the fraternal “space” wherein men in similar walks of life grow as brothers in Christ and sons of the Father. Here, men engage with a collection of texts and, in doing so together, cultivate a community that challenges them to become who they are.
As a group gets off the ground, the commitment level is intentionally quite basic. Members commit to the following elements:
We also encourage an intentional effort for the men to bring their families together monthly or bi-monthly for a meal, recreation, and the rosary, simply because it is good.
Groups meet once a month at a time that works for the entire group. You can learn all about starting a Bourbon & Books group within Stella Maris by checking out the leader guide.
Please complete the form if you are interested in joining or forming a Bourbon and Books group and one of our leaders will be in touch with you!
