3 Steps to Launch a Chapter

  • Commission Lay Adults

    These adults - we call them confrères - will serve as mentors and role models for the Brother Templars during the life of the chapter.

  • Recruit Templars

    It starts with making a list of the male teenagers in your parish who you believe would be interested in joining the chapter.

  • Launch Chapter

    The chapter begins to take on a life of its own, culminating in the 1st Mass served by the Templars chapter.

Why We Exist

Fatherhood is suffering.

Whether Catholic priests or Catholic husbands, there are too few. Male teenagers crave challenge, purpose, and belonging, and Templars helps them find it in Christ's Church.

How?

By proposing a rhythm of altar serving, fellowship, service, and prayer that engages its members in the imitation of Christ.
