A WEEKEND FOR DISCERNMENT, CONNECTION, AND NEW POSSIBILITY
Join President & CEO Dan Cellucci and a community of faith-filled leaders for a weekend grounded in dialogue, prayer, and a bold vision to revitalize our Church.
We’ll share stories from special clergy and lay leaders from around the country. We’ll reflect on the joys and challenges of leadership today. And we’ll create space to listen—to God, to one another, and to the call of the Gospel in our time.
This is an exclusive opportunity to witness how Catholic Leadership Institute (CLI) empowers tomorrow’s leaders at this critical moment in our Church’s story. See firsthand the union of tradition and innovation as we help clergy lead with confidence and competence.
Together, we will join in Holy Mass and prayer. Afternoons will be free for you to explore the beauty of Palmetto Bluff.

Sacred Connection in the Southland
On March 19th, the Feast of St. Joseph, we will gather for Catholic Leadership Institute’s Vision Summit—and it’s no coincidence. It’s providence. In a world yearning for courage, clarity, and quiet strength, there is no greater heavenly guide than St. Joseph—a man who didn’t just rise to the moment but was made for it.
At every turning point in the life of the Holy Family, when everything was on the line, Joseph showed up. Steady. Faithful. Decisive. He protected, provided, and believed—without applause, without hesitation. That’s the kind of leadership the Church needs today. And that’s why CLI is here for this moment—ready to step up, ready to serve, ready to lead. As you look upon the face of St. Joseph, ask yourself: What if this is your moment, too?
Giving to God Through Daily Discipleship
The Church stands at a transformational moment. Her bishops, priests, deacons, and lay persons serve seven living generations.
Catholic Leadership Institute walks alongside them in Christ’s love. We accompany them through the brightest and darkest days. Together we can revitalize parishes and renew Church leaders, nurturing sustainable growth for tomorrow.
We work to help clergy and lay leaders discover their own God-given potential and learn to maximize their gifts to transform the Church with great energy and heart for the mission. This is a pivotal moment. Join us as we help strengthen all who serve God’s Church.
