Belong to a Venerable Archconfraternity in Rome

Always a great honor. 

A great way to get men involved in church, while also giving them a liturgical role.  A bit like the Knights of Columbus.

Name this Archconfraternity correctly and you will prove that you really know Rome well.

"Willingly join the confraternities of your locality, particularly those whose exercises bring most profit and edification.  By so doing you will perform a kind of obedience that is very agreeable to God, inasmuch as these confraternities, although not ordered by the Church, are nevertheless recommended by Her.  For to testify how much She deserves that very many persons enroll themselves in them, She grants indulgences and other privileges to the members."

-St. Francis of Sales
