Catholic Social Ministry Gathering 2019
 
Why Attend?

UNDERSTAND OUR MISSION TODAY

Every year, CSMG participants share our Catholic priorities through visits to Representatives and Senators on Capitol Hill.

For 30 years, the Catholic Social Ministry Gathering (CSMG) has served as the central gathering for professional development of Catholic social ministry leaders in the United States. At CSMG, participants reflect together on the call to mission and on domestic and international affairs in the light of Catholic social teaching. In 2018, CSMG participants shared our Catholic priorities through 170+ visits to Representatives and Senators. Don’t miss this opportunity to join others to grow in faith and develop new skills to promote justice!
