| WORSHIP |

| A Wilderness Outreach Expedition starts at the trail head of a wilderness area. From there the men hike between 5 and 20 miles to the base camp. After the base camp is set up the first act of Worship occurs; searching for and discovering where the Sanctuary will be located for the celebration of daily Mass. Then the Altar of Sacrifice is constructed. Still other men do the fine detail work of chinking and leveling the stones.Some masculine confrontation occurs about what stones to use and building methods, but in the end the Altar gets built and it is good. |

| "Then they took unhewn stones, as the law directs, and built a new Altar like the former one" Maccabees 4:47 |
| The work begins the typical way that men work together; minimal planning and getting right into the building. Each man goes out and finds the rocks that he is drawn to and then carries them to the Altar site. Some men become the mules while other men start to build the Altar with the stones provided. |


| Prayer |


| .Days and evenings are filled with prayer. The Liturgy of the Hours is prayed morning, evening and night. The Angelus is prayed at 6:00 am, 12:00 noon and 6:00 pm. The prayer for Masculine Integrity is recited at 10:00 am and 2:00 pm. The discipline of Solitude and Silence is observed each day before or following the celebration of the Mass. |
| When the work, the struggle and the asceticism begin to lead a man to question his ability to endure, he prays to the Holy Mother for her intercession. |
