To serve as a gateway for Professional Catholic men of the Pasadena area to meet, network, and develop professionally every month at Saint Andrew's to cultivate the manly virtues of Saint Joseph The Worker and participate actively in parish life. Pope St. John Paul II called St. Joseph the Worker “a just man, a tireless worker, and an upright guardian of those entrusted to his care.” St. Joseph, The Worker - Professional Catholic Men’s Fellowship is a monthly networking group for Catholic professional men in the Pasadena area who seek to model the manly virtues of St. Joseph the Worker in their families, workplaces, and in society. As professional Catholic men, we seek to be salt and light for our local Pasadena community, modelling the manly virtues of St. Joseph in our families, our workplaces, and our community. We believe in the personal call to holiness of every person and that our professional work must be sanctified and offered to God. We seek to help, strengthen, and encourage other professional men to achieve success in their work and growth in their spiritual lives. We encourage all professional men to share the fruits of their labor with our Church community and those in need.
