Clearly, there's a problem with how we've been talking about Mass.

A lot of ministries try to combat this problem by equipping those on the edges — teaching the active faithful to share the faith or reaching the "lost sheep" through evangelization outreach.

CLARITAS seeks to reach those in the middle — the people who are in the pews every week but have no idea why they're there.

We call these the "frustrated Catholics." They're going through the motions, being dragged there by relatives, or going because it's what they're "supposed" to do.

They're completely spiritually unfulfilled...and they're on the edge of leaving altogether.

But they're still there. And at CLARITAS Ministries, we believe that if we can activate the frustrated Catholics by teaching them what's actually going on, they'll stay — and be integral to revitalizing the Church.

Our Values

We believe that

✔ You shouldn't need a theology degree to understand the Mass. 

✔ We don't need to change the preaching, the music, or the comfiness of the pews to increase attendance. We need to focus on clarity.

✔ The Mass isn't just about worshipping God — He designed it for us to "get something" out of too.

✔ God's call to St. Francis to rebuild His church extends to us too — and the best way we know how to do that is to activate those already in the pews.
