Support the Mission

Become an Ambassador

Bring Catholic cultural renewal to your city.

The Gregory the Great Institute is built in Edmonton, but it belongs to the whole Church in Canada. Ambassadors are the distributed presence of the Institute — committed supporters who extend our reach into their own communities.

You don't need a theology degree or a fundraising background. You need a conviction that Catholic intellectual life in Canada is worth rebuilding, and a willingness to open a few doors in your city.


What You'll Do

Three Ways to Serve

Host

Organize a wine-and-cheese evening, a living room book study launch, or a screening of a Reasonable Passions lecture in your parish or home. We provide the materials, invitations, and follow-up support — you provide the space and the community.

Share

Forward the Magnalia Letter to friends. Share Library articles with your parish priest. Recommend a Book Study to your homeschool co-op. Post about the Conference on social media. The simplest acts of sharing are the Institute's most powerful growth engine.

Introduce

Know someone who should know about GGI? A parish priest, a Catholic school principal, a business leader, a young professional searching for intellectual depth? Make the introduction. We'll take it from there.

Is This You?

Ambassadors Are

Parish leaders who see the hunger for intellectual formation in their community

Homeschool parents connected to families who would thrive in Book Studies and at the Conference

Catholic professionals whose networks include mission-aligned people of means

Young adults who discovered GGI through a video or event and want to bring it to their friends

Priests and deacons who want Magnalia in their parish library and GGI programs for their people

Retirees with time, wisdom, and relationships — and a desire to invest them in something lasting
