Creatio

Creatio is an answer to the most important question facing Christianity today - How do we “go and make disciples of all nations” in a world desensitized to God?

Our culture numbs us to the experience of God’s presence in all things, including ourselves. Younger generations are struggling to navigate life’s most important decisions. At the same time they are engaging in a particularly challenging battle against the forces that deaden their perception of God. Constant distraction, an unfulfilled search for identity, individualistic self-creation, moral relativism, and religious apathy - are all symptoms of our generation’s struggle.

Creatio’s work as a Catholic apostolate focuses on transforming the hearts of our generation through beauty and relationship. We form young missionaries to lead unique pilgrimage, outdoor adventure, and mission experiences designed to challenge participants to disconnect from today’s culture and restore their fundamental relationships - with themselves, with each other, with creation, and with the Creator.

Testimonials

"The mission experience was one of the greatest and most influential times of my life. I had never had the opportunity to live in a place of great poverty for a short time, nor had I ever been able to work with people who lived in these conditions....Although they possessed very little materially, the love and joy of Christ was so present in them, which speaks very clearly about what is really essential in this life."
-Craig, Peru Mission

"I’ve always been Christian, but I always felt that the world had too much of a hold on me [...] I’ve had a hard past, and my pain didn’t allow me to forgive. This experience allowed me to detach from the world and find who I am in Jesus Christ. I am involved in my faith at a whole new level now, and it is because of this trip that I can truly say I am healed in God’s name. You have given me a fresh start. Thank you."
-Bella, Camino de Santiago

“Creatio not only taught me how to be a good missionary and outdoor guide but also that the evangelization of others comes from the beauty of the human person and that the most beautiful thing is a heart totally devoted to God."
-Nathan, Creatio Missionary Guide 2019-2022
