Connecticut Catholic Men’s Conference 2024: A Catalyst for Spiritual Growth

West Hartford, CT — Once again, the Connecticut Catholic Men’s Conference will unite Catholic men from across the state for the 17th annual event, serving as a catalyst for ongoing spiritual growth. The conference will be held on Saturday, September 21st, 2024, at Northwest
Catholic High School.

Doors open at 7:30am, with the event starting promptly at 8:30am and concluding with the Vigil Mass.


This year’s theme, “The Four Last Things: Death, Judgment, Heaven, Hell,” will be explored by a distinguished panel of National speakers, including:

  •  
  • • Father Wade L.J. Menezes, CPM: Dynamic homilist and author.
  • • Steve Ray: Catholic apologist and bestselling author.
  • • Kevin Wells: Writer and former sports reporter.
  • • Peter Herbeck: Executive VP of Renewal Ministries and TV/radio host.

A highlight of the conference will be the opening procession with over 24 Saint reliquaries. These reliquaries will remain on stage throughout the event, serving as a powerful reminder of the Saints' understanding of Christ's presence in the last four things.


The conference will also feature a Eucharistic procession, Eucharistic Adoration, Exhibitors/Vendors and opportunities for Confession. Archbishop Christopher J. Coyne will celebrate the closing Mass.


Join us for this profound catalyst for spiritual growth, where each year attendees’ faith is enriched and strengthened. For more information and to purchase tickets, visit www.ctcatholicmen.org.
