AI for discipleship and mission

Part of our mission at Catholic.Work, is to use technologies like AI to make ministry knowledge accessible. Chatbots, searchable knowledgebases, and smarter search tools help families, catechists, and parish leaders find clear answers for faith formation and OCIA.

We can also guide parishes and dioceses in applying AI to daily operations. From managing member contacts and mailing lists to supporting outreach and evangelization, we are open to employing AI for the sake of the Kingdom.

AI Technology

The command of Christ to “go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit” calls the Church to use every tool at her disposal for evangelization. In our age, this includes AI and digital technologies. When used wisely, these tools can open new doors for proclaiming the Gospel, making the treasures of the faith accessible to seekers and supporting those already walking as disciples.

Yet technology is never an end in itself—it must always serve the mission of Christ and the dignity of the human person. AI, knowledge bases, and digital platforms are most fruitful when they help the Church accompany people, deepen relationships, and nurture communities of faith. In this way, innovation becomes not a distraction but a channel for grace, helping the Church extend the saving love of God into the digital world.
