Join us May 17th at 4:00PM Rome time as our participants present a selection of their Capstone Projects!
These student-led action plans demonstrate the mastery of new management skills, addressing a unique challenge in the student's home diocese. Every capstone is approved by the student's bishop (or superior if they belong to a congregation) and focuses on filling an unmet need. These projects also help to ensure that the Program of Church Management continues to bear fruit long after the students finish their studies.

The countless people who share their talents and time with the Church are true assets that allow Her mission and legacy to carry on. Just like St. Lawrence, we can say that these workers are the real "treasure of the Church."

As Pope Francis said during his homily at the Chrism mass: "The fact that the Lord chooses, from among his flock, some who devote themselves exclusively to the care of his flock as fathers and shepherds is a great gift for our people." - Thank you to all of our priest students and alumni for your ministry and leadership!

"Personal honesty and goodwill are no excuse for incompetence, which makes corruption so much easier. I felt the need for a course in management and finances in Rome for priests, religious, and laity, which could be followed in a variety of ways, e.g., part-or full-time. One did not need to be Einstein to recognize the need, but the Pontificia Università della Santa Croce authorities took up the idea expertly and quickly.” With these words Cardinal George Pell talks about the inception of Program of Church Management - PCM in his 2020 book, "Prison Journal."

In our very own Prof. Mendoza’s words :
“The central theme of Fundraising at PCM is that fundraising is not about money but about creating personal relationships with the donors.

In this sense, fundraising has a spiritual dimension akin to “giving a sermon, entering a time of prayer, visiting the sick, or feeding the hungry,” because through it we invite others into the reality that we live not for ourselves but for one another.”
