Esto Vir

Esto Vir is a powerful “Rite of Passage” program designed to support the formation of young men from boyhood to manhood.

This is an all-male program that utilizes a boy led and father supported leadership model that focuses on virtue, leadership, and team-based brotherhood.

Esto Vir is Latin for “Be a Man.” The development of true masculinity in men is almost non-existent in today’s society. This program was created to fill this gap and bring men of all ages together in a traditional way.

Esto Vir provides middle schoolers, highschoolers, young adult men and fathers a consistent opportunity to dive into their Catholic faith and grow in authentic masculinity within their parish community. This program is intentionally structured to let participants lead as they learn.

Team Structure:

Esto Vir teams are made up of Participants, Youth Leaders, and Adult Leaders. The size of the group will vary depending on the parish but often range from 15 – 30 total members. Esto Vir is a parish level program which means it will be led by parishioners, with continuous guidance, materials, and support from V2 Ministries.
