Club Magellan for Fathers & Sons

Club Magellan is a program of Wespine Study Center (wespine.org). Wespine runs programs which promote the academic and character development of young men. All of Wespine’s activities are based on a Christian worldview, and the Catholic Prelature Opus Dei (opusdei.org) takes responsibility for ensuring that this Christian orientation is present in Wespine’s programs.

Why Club Magellan

  • Club Magellan helps boys to develop virtues (fortitude, temperance, etc.) through talks and fun activities.

  • Talks for the fathers show them the importance of developing virtues and strong characters in their sons and give them practical advice on how to do this.

  • Fathers have an opportunity to spend meaningful time with their sons.
