Honor Code
In all things, we are aware of God: our place in his plan, our need of his grace, and always conscious of all we have received from him. A good man willingly submits to God’s wisdom, not his own.
In order to sustain our ability to fight the spiritual battle, we frequent the Sacrament of Holy Communion and the Sacrament of Reconciliation as often as possible. These sacraments are to be seen as the source of our strength.
As we are defenders of God’s Holy Church, we accept our responsibility of learning the Truth She teaches and are not afraid, reluctant, or even hesitant to defend Her honor.
We never underestimate the power of our witness as men to the truth of Jesus Christ and his Church. Hence, we conduct ourselves as Catholic gentlemen at all times by purity of action, decency in speech, modesty in dress, respect toward others, and a spirit of good nature.
