Your Catholic Faith is the greatest gift you’ll ever receive. So how do you keep the Faith in a world that literally seems hell-bent on taking it away?

Our mission is to help you explain your Catholic Faith intelligently, defend it charitably, and share it more effectively.

Through our life-changing summer leadership conferences where world-class Catholic experts show you how to take on today’s toughest issues, through Envoy Magazine (our award-winning quarterly journal), through our content-rich website, our inspirational Envoy of the Year events, and more.

Our Mission: Helping Young Catholics Keep the Faith

The Envoy Institute is designed to help guide young people through the two times in their lives when they’re most in danger of losing their faith: 1) when they leave home to go to college; and 2) when they leave college to enter the workforce.

Open to young adults nationwide, the Institute provides:

  • A community of support for newly – or soon to be – independent young adults.
  • The community is “real” via conferences and training sessions, and “virtual” through downloadable content on the Institute’s website, www.EnvoyInstitute.net.
  • Mentoring by respected experts in contemporary issues challenging young adults.
  • The quarterly magazine Envoy, offering Catholic insights on contemporary issues with a fresh sprinkling of award-winning humor.

At the 2009 Envoy of the Year Gala honoring Archbishop Charles Chaput, Mr. Carl Anderson, supreme knight of the Knights of Columbus, had this to say about the work of the Envoy Institute:

“The challenge that the Institute seeks to address, that of keeping young adults connected to the faith and helping them discern God’s call in their lives, is one of the most import that we face today.  Little else we do will matter, if we fail to pass on the faith to the next generation.  Only by helping young people discern their true mission, can we hope to realize a new evangelization of our culture.”
