As a separate legal entity from the Diocese of El Paso, the Catholic Foundation is not affected by the recent reorganization of the Roman Catholic Diocese of El Paso. We remain committed to our core purpose of raising funds necessary to sustain the parishes, schools, ministries, and charities that continue the teachings of Jesus Christ in our Diocese. All monies raised through the Catholic Foundation are only used for the parishes, programs, services, and ministries for which they are designated. No gifts are used to satisfy legal fees or settlement costs associated with the Roman Catholic Diocese of El Paso’s reorganization.

Now more than ever, we are counting on the community to help us fulfill our mission. Our hearts and prayers remain with the victims and their families.

One in Christ: Called to Pray, Serve, and Give

Join us for the 5th Annual Diocesan Stewardship Conference on Saturday, August 8, 2026, from 8:30 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. at St. Stephen Deacon and Martyr Catholic Church. This free diocesan gathering brings together parishioners, clergy, and ministry leaders for a morning of inspiration, learning, and spiritual renewal. The Foundation is thrilled to have Most Reverend James Misko, newly ordained Bishop of Tucson, as our featured keynote speaker for this conference as well an inspirational luncheon presentation by our very own, Bishop Mark Seitz.

The conference includes engaging breakout sessions in English and Spanish focused on discovering how living as faithful stewards is transformed through a deeper love for the Mass, welcoming and embracing all people, strengthening families as the domestic church, and joyfully sharing our gifts in support of the mission of the Catholic Faith. A complimentary luncheon will be provided by Chick-fil-A Rojas/Eastlake.

Don’t miss out on this beautiful day of inspiration, formation, and fellowship as we grow together as faithful stewards of God’s gifts.
