Do you feel like something is missing from your life? Do you enjoy working with your hands and being outdoors? The Forged in Faith X (Experience) offers men an opportunity to disconnect from the daily grind and join 23 other men for a life changing experience. You are invited into a place where you’ll be able to be vulnerable and not be judged. Whether you have been away from the Church for a while, feel like you are too broken or don’t have time – you are the men we are looking for!

Forged in Faith X starts on a Friday evening with fellowship and a meal cooked over an open fire. You’ll then hear from our first amazing speaker and have time to reflect and journal on how God is speaking to you. We will then cut the electricity and sit around the campfire for the rest of the night. As our Friday evening concludes, you’ll settle into your tent under the stars, on what is arguably the most beautiful 100 acres of land in Lincoln, NE (The Oaks).

The following morning will start early with biscuits and gravy, and the smell of the campfire as we light up the forge where you’ll get to experience the life of a blacksmith. After a morning reflection we’ll break into small groups where you’ll take turns forging your own cross out of steel. When not forging metal, you can learn about firearms and take some shots at the shooting range!

Throughout the day you will hear from amazing speakers who will help you deepen your relationship with Jesus Christ. You will also have opportunities for Quiet Reflection, Spiritual Direction, Intercessory Prayer and when Priests are available, go to Confession and The Holy Mass. We will conclude our day at 3:30 PM Saturday.

The Forged in Faith X is free for participants and we can’t wait for you to join us!

Want to help?

– We Need Prayers!
We will first and foremost take your powerful prayers for the men who have registered for the Experience. We pray that their hearts and minds will be touched by God. We also ask for your prayers for the success of our Mission and protection from the enemy!

-Do you like to cook?
We are always looking for help with food on Friday night – be that a casserole, dessert or anything you think a bunch of men would like to eat as we break bread and start our journey together! You can use this link here to sign up!

-Financial Support
If you’d like to help us with a free will donation, we set up a link to our GoFundMe campaign. Your donation will help us cover the cost of food and materials for the next group of Men! We are currently working to become a 501c3 organization and hope to have that set up this Fall so your future donations can be tax deductible!

This event is geared towards Men high school age and older!
