Programs
Msp catholic: this is a digital and social media hub created with the purpose of building community, educate, and inspire young catholic families and adults to integrate christ into their lives. The website currently has 850+ followers and continues to grow. There are so many amazing catholic things happening in the twin cities, but they aren't always easy to find. Msp catholic wants to change that by providing a centralized platform of information where young adult catholics can find what groups, parishes, and individuals are doing.

Small groups can help aid young adult catholics in connecting and building friendships that can help grow spiritually in their faith through encouragement, accountability, support and prayer.cend's small group formation program has created a pilot parish program with five parishes in alliance with real life catholic (rlc). We are using rlc's educational and spiritual materials as a foundation to start and form these small groups. Cend will work with the local parishes to initiate the groups and coordinate the group formation, as well as work with both rlc and each pilot parish to define the activities that will aid in bringing rlc into the spiritual and community life of the parish. Cend will also help develop a scalable system for small group growth at the parish level.through this program, cend wants to create a channel where parishes can have access to other cend services such as msp catholic, cend young adult professional events, speakers and mentorship programs as well as other networking opportunities.
