For to this you have been called, because Christ also suffered for you,
leaving you an example that you should follow in His footsteps.
(1 Peter 2:22)
About Us
The Oklahoma Fellowship of Catholic Men (OFCM), formerly the Catholic Men's Ministry of Oklahoma, is a 501(c)3 not-for-profit organization dedicated to serving the spiritual needs of men in our state through events, publications and fellowship. We welcome men of all faiths and ages to join us as we seek to enrich our marital, family and workplace relationships.
Founded in 1996 as a parish-based ministry, the OFCM has grown into a statewide organization recognized primarily as the sponsor of the annual statewide Catholic Men's Conference, In The Father's Footsteps. In the Father’s Footsteps is meant to give Catholic men an opportunity to get away from the hustle and bustle of life for a day... to gain inspiration from outstanding speakers, to participate in the Sacramental life of the Catholic Church, to spend time with other men in fellowship and to reflect on our role as husbands, fathers and citizens in preparation for entrance into God’s Kingdom.
The Oklahoma Fellowship of Catholic Men is an affiliate of the National Fellowship of Catholic Men.
The OFCM is a ministry serving the Archdiocese of Oklahoma City and the Diocese of Tulsa.
