Into the Breach - The Mission of the Family

Starting September 9th, we will begin a 5 week video series produced by the Knights of Columbus called "Into the Breach - The Mission of the Family".  The series consists of 5 short videos which we will watch together at MPB.  Remote tables can decide the best way for watching the videos (either together or prior to the meeting).

Each week, the Weekly Dose email will provide a link to the video as well as the study guide for that episode.  The more comprehensive study guide is available here:
