Catholic Men's Group First Breakfast & Talk - November 16, 2019
On Saturday November 16, 2019, the Catholic Men’s Group sponsored a breakfast and a talk by Dr. Matthew Kuhner.

The Knights of Columbus, Chapter #1445 from Canandaigua provided an enjoyable breakfast for 45 men from various parishes and Dr. Kuhner, who is Academic Dean and Assistant Professor of Systematic Theology at St. Bernard’s School of Theology and Ministry in Rochester, spoke eloquently and frankly about “Sexuality and the Sacred: What does the Gospel Say About Love and Sexuality?”

We hope to have 3-4 such breakfasts and talks throughout the year so check back to this web page regularly to see when the next event will be.

In the meantime, please feel free to listen to Dr. Kuhner’s talk below and share it with others!
