Rev. John Rovnak and Bishop David Connar speak with students at Cardinal Mooney High School

The Annual Summer Conference for clergy in parishes with a Catholic School will be held July 7-10, 2025, on the campus of Notre Dame. The School Pastors’ Institute (SPI) is animated by its mission to embrace, educate, and empower children, families, educators, leaders, and pastors serving in Catholic Schools.

The SPI is rooted in three key areas:

  1. the pastor/chaplain as spiritual leader;
  2. the pastor/chaplain and principal relationship, and
  3. the critical role of the pastor in the Catholic school.

The Summer Conference begins on Monday, July 7, 2025, at 5:00 p.m. and concludes on Thursday, July 10, 2025. at 12:00 noon.

Registration is now open until May 31, 2025, at https://ace.nd.edu/programs/spi

Registration fee is $900 and includes all meals, accommodations in a local hotel and materials.
