About FAITH Catholic
FAITH began in 2000 as a magazine for the Diocese of Lansing, and in 2003, began publishing for other dioceses and Catholic organizations. In 2009, FAITH merged with the diocese’s 50-year-old liturgical publisher, Liturgical Commission Publishings, to form FAITH Catholic.
Today, we’re the nation’s largest publisher of Catholic magazines, with 60 publications for Catholic dioceses and organizations reaching 2.2 million households. We’re also a full service integrated marketing and digital services company, creating websites, marketing strategies, advertising campaigns and more on behalf of entities within the Church.
FAITH Catholic also hosts Masstimes.org, a powerful tool for travelers to locate a church and Mass near them. This is paired with FAITH’s catholiceventfinder.com, a calendar site that allows users to create and find Catholic events.
