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.

Join us for the Third Annual Patties and Pints for Priests on Thursday, October 15, 2026, at 5:00 p.m., friends and supporters of the Diocese will gather at Dead Beach Brewery, 3200 Durazno Ave., El Paso, TX 79905. Have a night out of fun and laughter as we raise funds to support the the Ongoing Priestly Formation Fund, a fund established in 2011 through an anonymous donation. Its purpose is simple but important: to help the Diocese of El Paso provide priests with opportunities for continuing education and formation after ordination.

Being a priest is a lifelong vocation of service, and that service calls priests to continue growing throughout their ministry. This fund helps provides support for their spiritual, leadership, and academic formation, helping priests deepen their knowledge, strengthen their leadership, and continue developing the skills and spiritual foundation needed to serve their parishes and the people entrusted to their care.

Each admission ticket includes a burger, fries, and a pint of beer/root beer drink of your choice! You will not want to miss out on this event! Host a priest for this fun event!
