ABOUT
The Troops of Saint George (TSG) is the premier fraternal Catholic apostolate for priests, men, and young men looking for a life of adventure coupled with virtue.
This troop is intended for boys ages 6-17 to participate with their fathers.
This is an opportunity for young men and their fathers to grow in faith and virtue, along with learning essential skills every man should know, with other like minded men.
VIRTUS. HONOR. FRATERNITAS.
The Troops of St. George’s motto is Latin for Virtue, Honor and Fraternity.
MISSION
“The Troops of Saint George apostolate aims to use the outdoors as our canvas and the sacraments as our path to light the way for the formation of holy Catholic men and boys. Whether called to the vocation of the priesthood, the religious life, or that of holy fatherhood, our fathers and sons will take a prayerful pilgrimage together to fulfill Christ’s desire for them to grow in virtue and in their Holy Catholic faith as they journey toward heaven.”
FATHERS AND SONS
Boys need formation from their fathers, as well as an environment to cultivate and live out their God-given authentic masculinity. In His creative design, God desired for men to stand as the spiritual heads of their families. TSG has created a platform for men to both practice and teach the faith to their sons.
The Troops of Saint George is not a “drop off your kid” organization. Together, fathers* and sons work toward achievements and milestones of manhood while using the outdoors as their backdrop—and Christ’s Holy Catholic Church as their guide.
*Where fathers are not available to join TSG with their sons, we welcome male guardians, grandfathers, older brothers, uncles, or another male role model.Captain - Andy Schweinsberg (847) 366-1195
