Pro Tip from MSP!

Building your summer schedule doesn't have to mean chasing down who's on vacation.

With MSP, your volunteers can enter their own Can’t Serve Dates before the schedule is built. That means no spreadsheets of unavailable weekends, no back-and-forth emails, and far fewer scheduling surprises.
The schedule works around people’s real summer availability.

This week, Krista from the MSP team is at the 80th Annual Convention of the Catholic Theological Society of America in St. Louis. What a gift to be connected to this community of church leaders.

Thank you to CTSA for an inspiring conference.

The World Cup is here — and Pelé once said:
“No individual can win a game by himself.”

That's true in sport. It's even more true in ministry.

The liturgies, events, and outreach that make parishes come alive don't happen because of one person. They happen because dozens of people said yes — to setting up, serving, singing, greeting, and showing up week after week.

Here's to every person who makes the team work. ⚽

Running volunteer scheduling for a large parish isn't just more of the same — it comes with a whole different level of complexity.

Multiple Masses. Dozens of ministries. Hundreds of volunteers who all need reminders, subs, and schedule access. The admin load can feel overwhelming.

🌊 This World Oceans Day, we’re sharing one of the highlights from our recent team retreat: volunteering together with Nicoya Peninsula Waterkeeper.

We learned about the local ecosystem, cleaned trash from the beach, sorted recycling, and helped prepare plastic to be turned into bricks used to build streets. ♻️🧱
Grateful to Waterkeeper Alliance and the 300+ Waterkeeper groups around the world working to protect clean water and the beaches we all love.

Happy World Oceans Day to everyone helping care for our shared home. 🌎💙

🍩 Happy National Donut Day! 🍩

Fun fact: National Donut Day began as a Salvation Army tradition in 1938 to honor the volunteers who served donuts to soldiers in World War I. A small act of hospitality that became a hundred-year tradition.

For a lot of churches, Sunday Donuts are a ministry in their own right. Volunteers pick them up, set them out, and clean up every single week — and those moments of fellowship over Old Fashioneds and Long Johns help build real community.
Who's your parish donut hero? Tag them in the comments!

60 hours.
Every quarter. That's how long Deacon Peter Kennedy at St. James Catholic Church in Omaha, Nebraska used to spend building volunteer schedules.

Now, those hours can go back into ministry. That's exactly why we built MSP.

Summer can be one of the toughest times to keep volunteer ministries running smoothly — vacations, school breaks, outdoor schedules, and parish festivals all compete for the same pool of people.

How does your parish keep volunteers engaged through the summer months? Share your best strategies in the comments!

Today the Church celebrates the Feast of St. Joan of Arc — a young woman who answered an extraordinary call with extraordinary courage.

Happy Feast Day! May her boldness inspire all who serve.
