In this time of great uncertainty, we look to leaders.

With concerns about personal and communal health, the economy and employment during this coronavirus pandemic, a bright spot can be leaders in business who show exceptional faith. They might infuse the workplace with a sense of hope, make personal sacrifices to keep staff on the payroll, or carry on and carry others with them, trusting in the Lord’s love and mercy.

Crisis reveals character.

Every year, The Catholic Spirit celebrates executives and owners of secular businesses who lead with their Catholic faith with our Leading With Faith Awards. We’ve honored people who have shown Christ-centered leadership in times of plenitude and in times of stress.

More than ever right now, we can show our gratitude to these leaders, who keep their eyes on Christ and serve as an example for everyone. Please lift up these women and men by nominating them for a Leading With Faith Award.

  • Be active in some type of leadership position, such as a business owner, executive, director, manager or supervisor.
