Pushpay Fosters Connection in the Catholic Church, Announces New Product Innovations at the 2024 National Eucharistic Congress
16 Julio 2024 - 8:00AM
Pushpay, a leading payments and engagement solutions provider for
mission-driven organizations, announces several key product
innovations, strategic partnerships, and support of the 10th
National Eucharistic Congress in its revival of the Catholic
Church. As the Donor Management Sponsor of the Congress, Pushpay is
committed to addressing the foremost concerns of parish leaders
today. The National Eucharistic Congress is a five-day event held
July 17-21 in Indianapolis, Indiana.
This is the first Congress in 83 years, marking it a pivotal
moment in the legacy of the Catholic Church. With a steady decline
of church attendance and faith among America’s younger generations,
the need for revival is more urgent than ever.
“It’s an honor to work alongside the National Eucheristic
Congress at this pivotal moment in history to renew the Church and
support their mission of personal revival,” said Molly Matthews,
Pushpay CEO. “At Pushpay, we believe connection is a critical part
of discipleship, which is why we are dedicated to creating
innovative solutions to help leaders better know their parishioners
and grow their church.”
Pushpay’s goal is to help equip parish and diocesean leaders
with technology, information, and tools to engage parishioners and
help keep a pulse on the health of their community. The Company’s
involvement and support of the National Eucharistic Congress is a
reflection of its continued commitment and investment in the
Catholic Church, and a desire to help in its efforts to renew
parish life and build thriving communities. Highlights of Pushpay’s
involvement include:
- Onsite $10K Sunday Contest for Parishes:
Pushpay launches a 10K Sunday Nominate Your Parish
contest for onsite attendees. The Company will award a $10,000
prize to a Parish that best demonstrates their vision for how they
would use the funds to improve the Sunday experience, with a focus
on ways to foster connection through strengthening community,
enhancing ministry, and integrating technology. Parish nominations
will be accepted at the Pushpay booth (#660) and the winning Parish
will be announced in August, 2024.
- Interactive In-Person Sessions: The Company is
also hosting several fireside chat sessions with Catholic thought
leaders, live demonstrations with ParishStaq technology experts,
and more, at its onsite expo booth. Daily discussions will focus on
faith, technology, and the latest topics trending in the Church
with some of the most innovative minds in the Catholic community.
Speakers include Tim Glemkowski, David Calavitta, Joel
Stepanek, Emily Mentock, Katie McGrady, Paul Albert, Jackie Angel,
Tanner Kalina and more. Visit booth #660
for the full schedule.
- Announces ParishStaq Product Innovations:
Pushpay launches SacramentTracker, a robust solution to help Parish
leaders streamline operations while capturing a holistic view of a
parishioner's faith journey. Find, connect, and streamline
sacramental preparations with powerful process queues and templates
that make it easy to usher catechists through the entire faith
formation process. SacramentTracker empowers parish leaders to
support next steps for their parishioners as they strengthen their
bond with the Church through the sacraments, which are focused to
carry out the Church’s mission of love and service.
“Accompaniment is such an important part of discipleship.
Throughout the life of discipleship, people want to share their
graces or the trials they’re facing, and they want to share that
with a living, breathing human being immediately,” said Father
Brandon Macadaeg, from Cathedral of Christ the Light in Oakland.
“ParishStaq allows us to have that first person contact. It bridges
that gap and allows for discipleship to be lived out right then and
there.” For more information about Pushpay, ParishStaq, or the
