Your Mission Doesn’t Start on May 15th—It Starts Now!

Last week, we mourned the passing of Pope Francis and reflected on the unfinished mission he left us with. We introduced you to Jacob—who’s building an AI tool to bring Catholic wisdom to life—and invited you to our upcoming gathering on May 15th.

But here’s the truth: your mission doesn’t begin on May 15th. It begins now.

Every day between now and then is a chance to prepare your heart, reflect on your calling, and ask the question: What is God inviting me to build?

At Fides, we believe those whispers—the longing to start a school, build a business, serve the poor—are not random. They are divine.

So this week, we’re asking one thing:

Take 5 minutes today to write down the dream you’ve been putting off.

The one you’re afraid might be too big.

Too costly.

Too early.

Too late.

Bring that paper with you on May 15th and we’ll read each one out loud with Jacob as he gives us insight on how to start your own mission.

Because that’s when Jacob will share his journey—from writing his dream down, to being supported by Catholic leaders like Matt Fradd, to now building an app to bring Catholic teaching into the modern world.

And maybe, just maybe, your paper will become your plan.

We can’t wait to see you there.
