“RISE is precisely what is needed today to help men understand and live their unique mission in the world. If every man took the challenge, we’d see a transformation in our homes and parishes. I encourage all parishes in the Archdiocese of Philadelphia and beyond to support this movement of men.”
Charles J. Chaput, O.F.M. Cap.
Archbishop of Philadelphia
“The first episode of RISE essentially took place not in January 2018, but on the road to Damascus, as Saul ‘was led by hand by [his] companions,’ (Acts 9:8), his fellow men, and was transformed by Christ into St. Paul. RISE is an expressway to the road to Damascus, the road on which St. Paul had his conversion. There is something of the light that shown on St. Paul here. There are no shortcuts to the road to Damascus, but there is an expressway to it: RISE.”
Rev. Msgr. Brian Bransfield,
General Secretary, USCCB
“RISE teaches men who we are called to be, what we are called to do, and how we can practically accomplish simple concrete tasks each day in our walk toward eternity that will help us be intentional sons, brothers, husbands and fathers. This. Is. The. Best. Program. For. Men.”
Fr. Joshua Johnson
Pastor, Our Lady of the Holy Rosary
