Faithful Through Fire: The Steady Witness of Manny Montanez

Faithful Through Fire: The Steady Witness of Manny Montanez
When Manny Montanez reflects on the road that led him here—from the Montana plains where he was born, to the corporate boardrooms he led, to the armories where he now volunteers—it’s his family’s faith and his own hard-won humility that come most clearly into view.

“My grandfather used to tell us: before you can get home, you have to touch all the bases,” Manny says, recalling the lesson he first learned as a boy of Mexican descent growing up in a deeply Catholic household. “There are many steps to satisfaction. Many steps to success. You don’t get to skip them.”

That conviction—faithful, steady, and formed through hardship—has shaped every chapter of Manny’s life.

From Play to Purpose: How Joe Burke Is Reclaiming Family Through Joy
Joe Burke didn’t set out to disrupt the toy industry. He set out to be present.

A former Disney executive with a background in product innovation, Joe had built a successful career in corporate leadership. But at home, he was just a dad trying to keep a volleyball from shattering his kitchen. That moment—equal parts frustration and fatherhood—sparked an idea that would become Ollyball: a lightweight, colorable indoor ball now found in homes, hospitals, and classrooms across the world.

Partnering with Mary's Missionaries

Partnering with Mary's Missionaries

Legatus member answers call to evangelization as an oblate of the Missionaries of Divine Revelation

In 1947, the Virgin Mary appeared to a rabidly anticlerical Protestant at Rome's Grotto of the Tre Fontane and converted him to Catholicism. She identified herself as the Virgin of Revelation. That apparition inspired the "spiritual" birth of the Missionaries of Divine Revelation, which won formal approval from the Diocese of Rome as a Catholic religious community after a long experience of lay consecration with a religious character. Identifying their mission as "apostles of the mystery of the Church," the missionaries seek to spread divine revelation through catechesis and evangelization. Pam Raymond, a member of Legatus' Bucks County Chapter, recently became an Oblate of the Missionaries of Divine Revelation—which, true to their roots in an earthly appearance by Mary, encourages a strong devotion to the Blessed Mother.
