The Catholic Church faces a moment of great opportunity.
Pope Leo’s Magnifica Humanitas challenged the Church to focus on a future with Artificial Intelligence.
What are the implications of that challenge?
What does this moment ask of—and offer—leaders in Catholic institutions, from dioceses to parishes to nonprofits?
Our 2026 Catholic Partnership Summit leverages our decades-long work of building a culture of standards-based excellence in Catholic institutions to address the pressing questions around AI, focusing not on whether to use the powerful new tools at our disposal but rather on how.
The Summit will consider the challenges and opportunities AI presents institutions of the Church today by wrestling with two enduring questions:
i.
What makes an institution strong enough to carry its mission?
Vision does not survive on conviction alone. It survives on effective governance, sound finances, operations that work, and leaders who have built something strong enough to hold the weight.
ii.
How do we take up what is new without losing who we are?
Technology and other tools should sharpen our judgment and serve the mission, rather than do our thinking for us or make us a product of someone else's vision.
