What leaders in ministry to men think
Bishop's Statement
Now is the time for Catholic men to respond to the Gospel call and join together to live their faith in the marketplace,
Modeling the joy of faith-filled Christians in the world we live. As men of Christ, we must work together – clergy and laity – in addressing the challenges facing our cities, our nation and our world.

Bishop's Statement
I encourage anyone who’s listening to this to invest in men’s ministry, in your Church, in your parish, in your diocese.
Because when we have stronger men, more faithful men, we have a better society and a healthier Church.

We sometimes felt like we were on our own in the mission of building Catholic men’s ministries.
CMLA is restoring our hope by providing much needed material and connections with like-minded Catholic men in other parts of the country.

Here in the Midwest we are realizing great impact from the Men of Christ Conference in Milwaukee.
The CMLA is helping to take our ministry to men to a whole new level, developing more leaders and connecting us to brothers all across the country.

Review
We have millions of Catholics in California. As a regional men’s group leader, I was becoming overwhelmed with the need.
Thank God for CMLA. We are now connected to resources and leadership training that will help us in the good work of the Holy Spirit in men’s lives.

About the Catholic Men's Leadership Alliance
In 2017 a group of four laymen, a priest and a deacon convened to seek God’s help to reach men across North America with the strength and hope found in Jesus Christ.
What developed was a vision to unify the efforts of Catholic men’s groups and to advance Catholic ministry to men with mentorship, expertise and essential resources.
Recognizing the very evident need for ministry to men in the Church and culture, they formed the Catholic Men’s Leadership Alliance.
The Alliance has grown from humble beginnings to now having representatives in many dioceses in the United States, as well as Canada, Singapore, Africa, South America and other countries around the world.
Laymen, priests, deacons and bishops praise the impact the Alliance is making to develop strong men of faith.
