Catholic Foundation for the Diocese of El Paso

08/25/2026

Education has often been described as the "lighting of a fire." At our Catholic schools throughout the Diocese of El Paso, we strive to ignite not only a love of learning but also a lifelong love for Christ.

Academic excellence remains at the heart of our mission, preparing students to succeed in high school, college, and beyond. But we know that true education goes far deeper than textbooks and test scores. In a world where faith is often pushed aside, our Catholic schools place Jesus Christ at the center of everything we do. He is the foundation of our classrooms, the inspiration for our teachers, and the guide for our students.

Every child is created with God-given dignity and purpose. Through faith formation, service, leadership, and academic achievement, we help students discover their unique gifts and prepare them not only for successful futures, but for lives rooted in faith, compassion, and discipleship.

"How beautiful are the feet of those who bring the good news!" Romans 10:15

The Office of Education is supported through the 2026 Progress Annual Ministry Appeal. Discover how your generosity is helping share Christ's love through Catholic education and so many life-changing ministries across our Diocese.

Today we celebrate St. Bartholomew, one of the Twelve Apostles, whose life reminds us of the call to follow Christ with faith and courage and to share His Gospel with others.

May his example inspire us to recognize Christ in our lives and faithfully answer His call to discipleship.

St. Bartholomew, pray for us!

Today is National Be an Angel Day, a beautiful reminder that we are all called to be instruments of God’s love invite lives of others. ❤

In sacred scripture, angels are God’s faithful messengers bringing hope, protection, comfort, and guidance. While we are not angels ourselves, we are called to reflect God’s goodness though simple acts of kindness, compassion, and mercy.

Today, consider being an angel for someone by:
✝Praying for a person who is struggling
✝Visiting someone who is lonely
✝Offering encouragement to someone in need of hope
✝Performing a small act of charity
✝Or perhaps by donating to one of the 100+ endowed funds of the Catholic Foundation to support the causes you cherish most. These endowed funds provide a perpetual, supplemental source of income to support programs, operations, scholarships, and more.

Today, we honor St. Pius X, Pope, whose love for Christ and devotion to the Eucharist continue to inspire generations of Catholics.

As we celebrate his memorial, we give thanks for the young Church of today and pray that, through the intercession of St. Pius X, our young people may continue to grow in faith, serve with joyful hearts, and remain close to Christ.

May God bless the young community of St. Pius X Parish and all the youth throughout our Diocese!

St. Pius X, pray for us!
