Connect with a Cause is an educational webinar format that spotlights organizations working in one of CCF’s three mission areas: spiritual, educational, and social. These events elevate pressing needs in our community and connect attendees to organizations and missions working to address those needs.

Upcoming Webinars

In the autumn of 2024 CCF launched a new Connect with a Cause series: In Focus. It’s a trio of webinars spotlighting missions and ministries serving the Catholic Latino population of our archdiocese.

Did you know that:

  • Nearly 43% of U.S. Latino adults identify at Catholic?
  • In 2021, more than 15% of Catholics in the Archdiocese of Saint Paul and Minneapolis identified as Latino?
  • Twenty-five parishes in our archdiocese have vibrant Latino Ministries and even more offer Mass in Spanish?

With this series, we aim to highlight charities in our community serving the spiritual, educational, and social needs of this growing and valuable segment of our Church body.

Additionally, CCF is pleased to share the story of SPO (Saint Paul’s Outreach) on February 25. Learn more and register below!
