Thousand of Catholic men are expected to converge on Oakland University in Rochester, Michigan, Saturday, April 21.
Aim of the day-long rally-like conference is conversion, transformation and evangelization, according to Bishop Michael Byrnes of the archdiocese of Detroit. An opportunity to celebrate the sacrament of reconciliation throughout the day is set in the O'Rena at 2200 Squirrel Road.
"They'll join with similar vibrancy for Jesus Christ," said John Schulte, a deacon at Our Lady of the Lakes Parish in Waterford, MI., in Oakland County.
Mass will be celebrated to start the day at 8 am while nationally noted speakers of Eternal Word Television Network are featured.
"Crossing the line and God's winning way," is the theme of this year's event that first started in 2002 when three thousand men participated. Walk-ins are welcome. The fee is $40 with a student rate at $25.
