Cana Family for Fathers

SIGN UP
"For if, by the transgression of one person, death came to reign through that one, how much more will those who receive the abundance of grace and of the gift of justification come to reign in life thorugh the one person Jesus Christ."
— Romans 5:17

Who We Are

Cana Family for Fathers is a group of dads and future dads who want to develop greater confidence in making decisions and living their convictions as husbands and fathers. We are from all walks of life, but share in the desire to grow in our faith, strengthen our marriage, grow closer to Christ, and build a domestic church.  

What We Do

What does it mean to Reign in Life through Jesus Christ? Is it something more than just attending church on Sunday? Is it more than making it through life and just sneaking into heaven by the skin of our teeth? Reign in Life is a four-year formation series for men that seeks to discover what the invitation of the Gospel—the invitation of the Church—has to offer them as sons of their Heavenly Father and in their vocation as husbands and fathers. Reigning in Life is vocational school for family life.
In the year-one series, Becoming Provider, men discover the true nature and meaning of work and see how our work aids us in becoming better men, husbands, and fathers. They also learn to live God’s vision for our work to build up ourselves, our families, and the world. ​Sessions include a reflection on a Gospel passage and church teachings, followed by a conversation on two to three principles that are directly relevant to being a husband and father, and conclude with a resolution to implement. ​

This series is based on Laborem Exercens (On Human Work) by St. John Paul II. ​

When We Meet

We meet twice a month from September through March. Times and days are determined by each group.
