Hungry Hearts, Ready to Believe
After a period that pulled many away from the Church, we are now seeing signs of return. People are coming back. And others are discovering the Catholic faith for the first time.
This is not a return to what was
People of all ages are searching for purpose, for truth, for something lasting in a world that often feels uncertain and disconnected. They are asking deeper questions. They are seeking belonging.
And when they encounter authentic faith, joyfully lived and meaningfully shared, they respond.
They are drawn to what is alive
People are not drawn to institutions. They are drawn to what is alive. To leaders who can meet them where they are, and to programs that invite them in, challenge them, and walk with them.
“The Catholic Initiative allows priests and religious leaders to focus on what drew them to their vocations in the first place.”
— Fr. Mike Schmitz
Hungry hearts, met. A renewal that lasts.
The Catholic Initiative is called to meet this challenge. By investing in the leaders and programs reaching people today, we ensure that hungry hearts are met.
