SacraMentors is currently being presented to a women's group. And there's the possibility of coeducational groups down the road. And if it's to be both men and women together, we're very open to that. For now, the focus has been on men, because that's where the need is. Misel said women naturally mentor each other, learning to share when they're young, and bonding in adulthood as they go through childbirth and menstruation.
Culture has to provide it.
And it's sorely missed in our society. Misel favors keeping the genders apart in SacraMentors' meetings. The site includes a list of members' prayer intentions for those facing illness or other problems. As the men bond through SacraMentors, they come to support one another outside of their weekly gatherings, Misel said. He recalls the case of a member who called his group before anyone else after being admitted to a hospital emergency room.
