THE JSC "SPIRITUAL TOOL CHEST" contains the following tools, meant to increase the vitality of any Catholic lay person, and to be used as a bridge to bringing into the fullness of the Catholic faith any who might feel so inclined, nudged and moved....
Choose from a variety of Consecratory Preparation Books: such as:
33 Days to Moring Glory - Fr. Michael Gaitley, MIC, leading up to Total Consecration to Mary, who leads us directly to her Son, Jesus.
Consecration to St. Joseph - Fr Michael Gaitley, MIC - a 33 day prep leading to A Consecration of Self to St. Joseph, Husband of Mary, Foster-Father of Jesus and most notably: TERROR OF DEMONS!
There is also available a lead up to: Investiture in the "Angelic Warfare Confraternity for Purity and Chastity" of the Dominican Order. This can be done within a month's time - at which time you are enrolled in the 400 year old confraternity with men (and women) who pray for courage and strength for others in the confraternity as they engage in the daily spiritual (demonic) battle with lust and all its ramifications: including the addictive use of pornography, and masturbatory practices that result from that. This confraternity is desperately needed and useful in the day and age. Br Peter can lead you through the initiation process as he has done so for many men before you!

The other tools offered are more intensive studies and preparations for a deeper spiritual life in general weeding out in your spiritual life that just needs to be gone - and replacing it with robust and proven spiritual disciplines and daily routines that do in fact work!
"Ascendere ad Regnum" this is a Seven Month exploration on what is broken in the contemporary male human being, especially a Catholic Christian one - it is meant to supplement, and in fact resembles in a lot of ways the 12 Steps of Recovery Model that is decades old now. Time is taken to weed out and prune off addictive behaviors and anything that "blinds and binds" men! This program is 3 years old now, and with much success credited to God for giving it to those who might need and benefit from it.
"A+" is the "graduate" fine tuning and tweaking of the spiritual life as it is now fully out in the sunlight but still needs to be tended to as on a master-gardener can. Br. Peter is such a gardener. The requirement for this program is having participated in "Ascendere" at least twice.
