A NEW CATHOLIC MOMENT

In an age of division and uncertainty, the questions we face as a nation are profound: How do we build a future rooted in unity, dignity, and truth?

The Napa Institute Citizens of Faith Conference, held just outside Washington, D.C., on April 9, 2025, seeks to answer these questions by inspiring and equipping Catholic leaders to rise to the challenges of our time. With Catholics engaged in ever new ways and the power of Church teaching to impact the common good, this conference offers a unique opportunity to chart a course for the next four years—a time poised to become a defining Catholic moment in America’s history.
