The Catholic Leadership Foundation
Inspired by Luke 5:1-11, the Catholic Leadership Foundation empowers lay Catholic leaders to embrace their baptismal call as missionary disciples.
Our strategic priorities focus on intensive lay leader formation, scriptural engagement, professional networking and partnerships, all aimed at fostering a deeper relationship with Christ as missionary disciples.
What we do
Forming lay leaders
‘Into the Deep’ Program is an extended leadership formation program designed to deepen and strengthen participants’ relationship with Jesus and so to be renewed as missionary disciples.
Living the Scriptures
‘With Burning Hearts’ develops and promotes initiatives to assist Catholics in reading and praying the Scriptures as an encounter with Jesus.
Networking leaders
‘So I Send You’ uses social media, a public website and a professional networking platform for the ongoing communication, information and formation of lay Catholic leaders.
Working in Partnership
‘With Others For Others’ involves partnering with dioceses and religious institutes to promote and enable other formation programs and initiatives for Catholics, especially lay leaders.
Lay leadership formation should empower people to take initiative, propose ideas, and act for the good of the Church.
