St. Rita
Men's Prayer Group
Building Christ-Centered Brotherhood
"Iron sharpens iron, and one man sharpens another."
— Proverbs 27:17
The Men's Prayer Group at St. Rita in the Desert is a place where Catholic men come together to grow in their relationship with Jesus Christ through prayer, authentic fellowship, and faithful Catholic formation.
Whether you are new to the faith or have been practicing for years, you'll find encouragement, accountability, and a brotherhood of men striving to become better husbands, fathers, grandfathers, and disciples of Christ.
Our Mission
Helping Men and Their Families Get to Heaven
Through prayer, faith formation, and fraternity, we help men focus on Jesus Christ while building authentic friendships rooted in the Catholic faith.
Inspired by the COR model, our ministry seeks to transform the hearts of men through Christ-centered brotherhood. As we grow together in virtue and faith, we become better equipped to lead our families, strengthen our parish community, and courageously share the Gospel as missionary disciples of Jesus Christ.
What to Expect
Each meeting follows a simple and welcoming format designed to help men grow spiritually while supporting one another in everyday life.
During a typical meeting, we:
- Begin with prayer.
- Study the Catholic faith together using Scripture and trusted Catholic resources.
- Encourage and support one another through conversation and fellowship.
- Close our evening in prayer.
No previous Bible study experience is necessary. Whether you're just beginning your faith journey or have studied Scripture for years, you'll find a welcoming community of men seeking to grow together.

Why It Matters
The Christian life was never meant to be lived alone.
In a world that often encourages men to carry life's burdens in isolation, Christ calls us into communion with Him and with one another. Through prayer, authentic friendship, and faithful Catholic formation, the Men's Prayer Group helps men strengthen their faith, support one another through life's challenges, and become the spiritual leaders God has called them to be.
