God First: Young Men Ready for the Crusade of 2026

Topics:

As the clash between good and evil grows in society and within the Church, the need for courageous Catholic men increases. In this time of moral confusion, good men must rise and fight for Christ the King.

This was the purpose of the 2025–2026 TFP Student Action New Year’s Conference for young Catholic men: to expose the revolutionary process steadily undermining America and to equip participants—both individually and collectively—to take part in the spiritual crusade of the Counter-Revolution, restoring the Christian moral order.

Where Is Our Nation Headed?

The conference theme, “Where Is Our Nation Headed? What Catholics Must Want for America,” captured both the urgency of the moment and each participant’s responsibility to make a difference. Through a series of talks and discussions, the conference addressed pressing issues such as technology, AI, transhumanism, organic Christian civilization, Gen Z and conversions to Catholicism, and the Left’s implosion.

Participants left with a clearer view of the cultural crisis and the tools needed to make an impact on their college campuses.

Public Pro Life Campaign

With abortion rates rising and attacks on innocent life increasing, action is needed. Therefore, TFP Student Action emphasizes public campaigns to defend the unborn.

Conference attendees had the opportunity to participate firsthand in a TFP Student Action public campaign featuring bagpipes, drums, banners, and more. They were also well equipped with arguments to counter any opposing liberal slogan that came their way.

Hands-on Debate Practice

During the conference, a hands-on debate practice took place on the topic of abortion. Under the direction of experienced TFP Student Action volunteers who have been involved in and trained in street debates for years, the participants sharpened their ability to defend innocent life.

This training prepared them to respond confidently, whether challenged by their liberal professors, confronted during a public campaign, or in any situation that requires it.

Prince Bertrand of Orléans-Braganza

One of the highlights of the conference was the presence of Prince Bertrand of Orléans-Braganza, Head of the Imperial House of Brazil. It was a profound honor to welcome him to this special event. A veteran of the cultural and ideological battles since the 1960s, Prince Bertrand is no stranger to the moral battlefield.

At the final banquet, His Highness delivered a powerful speech encouraging the young men. His words, deeply rooted in the Catholic faith and informed by decades of experience, were met with roaring applause.

A Call to the Crusade of Our Time

Those who attended returned home strengthened in faith, sharpened in intellect, and ready to work for the restoration of Christian civilization.

This is the crusade of our time. The battle is real, and the call is urgent! Now is the time for Catholics to step up and help reclaim America for God.
