What's Happening

There's a lot happening in the UK that you may like to get involved with

• Perth Rites of Passage - July 2010
  The next MROP will be taking place in Scotland Monday 26^th July - Friday 1^st Aug 2010. If you know of anyone who you think this could be of benefit to, then please let them know about it. We have found that a personal invitation to a particular man is the most effective way of getting men involved.
   
• There is an invitation to all initiated men to come to the Rite of Affirmation. This is a newly developed rite, by Richard Rohr and first run in Arizona, Oct 2009 which Adrian Scott and Stephen Ashton attended. We will be running the rites in the UK and you are invited to take part. It develops on the themes of the rites and asks us to continue them, through concrete action and prayer. There is a formation time of at least a year culminating in the rites of affirmation. More details are here
• Richard Rohr is visiting the UK in 2010. This is a great opportunity for us all to reach out to a wider group of men, to use the time to renew our own network and to further our service to the world through this work.
