📆Upcoming Events
January 20th 🏃 ☕ Catholic Entrepreneurs Morning Run Club (FREE)
January 28th 🕯️ Candle lit dinner W/Jeremy Tate, Catholic Led Competitor to the SAT & ACT (Students go Free. Young Founders and Professionals Discounted Tickets)
Brief words from Jeremy’s upcoming story:
“There was a very sweet Dominican sister creating two new classes. One was an intro to Christian Apologetics, and one was an intro to philosophy, and she was super excited, and I was excited and then registration time came, and basically no students signed up, you know. And I was talking to the students, you know, why didn't you want to take philosophy? And the main response was, you know, Mr. Tate, there are not any AP points. So that was the beginning of this. Like, this is crazy. We can't get our Catholic kids at a Catholic school to take philosophy or Christian apologetics because of the power of the College Board. “
The Importance of Daily Faith
Rose Kennedy in her book “Times to Remember” said:
“If God were to take away all His blessings, health, physical fitness, wealth, intelligence, and leave me but one gift, I would ask for faith—for with faith in Him, in His goodness, mercy, love for me, and belief in everlasting life, I believe I could suffer the loss of my other gifts and still be happy—trustful, leaving all to His inscrutable providence. When I start my day with a prayer of consecration to Him, with complete trust and confidence, I am perfectly relaxed and happy regardless of what accident of fate befalls me because I know it is part of His divine plan and He will take care of me and my dear ones”
She attended daily Mass and prayed the Rosary every day for most of her life. While studying at the Sacred Heart School in Vaals, The Netherlands, the nuns formed her in a disciplined Catholic faith one she later passed on to her children.
That faith became her bedrock in moments of immense suffering:
the loss of multiple children,
public scrutiny,
and the personal trial of remaining married when her father refused to permit a divorce from a husband who at times was unfaithful (because of the promise one makes in our faith).
That’s true sticking to the faith.
It was in these moments that she realized she had to place everything in God’s hands.
Why does this matter?
Because the routine of daily prayer and sacraments truly matters.
History shows this pattern again and again.
Karl of Austria attended daily Mass and prayed the Rosary daily. When faced with the collapse of his empire, he chose to abdicate rather than allow further bloodshed, placing the lives of his people above his throne.
Rainier III made a pilgrimage to Lourdes in 1954 to ask the Blessed Mother for a wife. Soon after, he met Grace Kelly, whose confirmation saint was Bernadette of Soubirous. Grace later participated in Patrick Peyton’s Rosary movement, “The family that prays together stays together,” inspiring gatherings of hundreds of thousands and in some cases millions of people praying together such as in Sao Paolo in the early 1960s.
Baudouin and his wife Fabiola de Mora y Aragón attended daily Mass as well. Despite suffering five miscarriages, their faith remained firm. In 1990, King Baudouin chose to temporarily abdicate his throne rather than sign legislation permitting abortion placing conscience above power.
These were people who carried immense responsibility and lived lives that appeared glamorous from the outside, yet endured profound trials. In every case, daily faith not status, was their anchor.
God gives graces to those who stay close to Him, but He no doubt also allows trials and temptations that test our faith. What liberates us in the end is trust. By entrusting their lives to Him, they found peace even when outcomes were uncertain.
That is why we encourage a rhythm of life rooted in prayer, the sacraments, and discipline. By having Mass and the Rosary as your rock, you can navigate even the strongest waves of life.
This is also why we are beginning something simple: the run club. Through it, you can start to experience not only the difference daily prayer and the sacraments make, but also how they strengthen you to face challenges, temptations, and trials.
God gives us challenges we are capable of bearing but only if we walk with Him.
What’s Next
One of the hardest things today isn’t believing it’s sustaining a way of life in a world designed to fragment attention, discipline, and commitment.
For that reason, we are introducing a membership tier not to create exclusivity, but to create continuity.
Retreat info to be announced soon!!
The membership is for those who want to commit more intentionally to living this life together. It will include:
A member-only retreat (limited ONLY to 10 people), featuring an acclaimed Catholic voice that we will be announcing soon (Valued at more then $1000)
Access to all of our speaking events in 2026, so formation is consistent rather than fragmented.
Member-only gatherings, smaller in size and deeper in focus, built around real friendship and accountability, not networking.
This is not for everyone, and it is not meant to be.
No one will ever be excluded from prayer, the sacraments, or community because of a membership. The run club and core gatherings remain open.
The membership simply exists for those who know that faith grows when it is lived regularly, together, and with intention.
