New blog! Across generations, Catholics are asking for the same thing: leadership they can trust. People want to feel confident in how decisions are made and how resources are stewarded. They want leaders who are approachable, consistent, and collaborative.

In his first speech from the loggia of St. Peter’s Basilica, the newly elected Pope Leo XIV took the opportunity to endorse synodality. With Leo’s backing, Catholic leaders in the pope’s home country have wasted no time in implementing its practical applications.

20 years ago, our founder Geoff had a bold vision: a stronger, more transparent Church supported by lay leadership. Thank you, Geoff, for having the faith and the commitment to bring it to life. Our Church wouldn't be on a path of renewal without lay leaders like you! vimeo.com/1131903971?f...

Catholics under 45—those who give most consistently—also express the strongest concern about how their donations are used, with many worrying their gifts could go toward legal fees or abuse settlements. Trust in stewardship begins with transparency. bit.ly/3WA1Iej

Our 2025 survey finds most Catholic parents say their children are baptized and active in sacramental prep. Nearly a third, however, are only partially engaged — highlighting the need to better support families in nurturing faith and connection. bit.ly/3WA1Iej

Our 2025 survey shows that among the disengaged, young adults are the most open to returning to the Church—if they feel welcomed and connected. There’s important work ahead for Church leaders to foster belonging and create meaningful pathways for renewed engagement. bit.ly/3WA1Iej

Just over half of U.S. Catholics (51%) are active in parish life, and young adults (18–29) show the highest engagement (72%). But sustaining that involvement will take trust, belonging, and shared leadership. bit.ly/3WA1Iej
