We’re looking for priests to help bring to life the Catholic social teaching on which Unbound is based.
Why join Unbound’s preaching team
Join our Catholic outreach and serve the poor by preaching for Unbound. As an Unbound preacher, you will:
- Receive compensation as an independent contractor
- Assist busy priests by helping cover pastoral duties
- Meet U.S. Catholics at parishes across the country
- Help parishioners deepen their faith through sponsorship
- Make a real difference in the lives of the world’s poor
Responsibilities:
Unbound preachers:
- travel during their available weekends throughout the year to share Unbound with Catholic parishes
- celebrate the Eucharist, preach the Word and share the invitation to connect with Christ within the poor — all while providing time off for busy pastors
- are welcomed warmly by Catholic parishes in need of coverage of priestly duties because you’ll never have to deal with second collections or leaving envelopes
- receives regular formation and training including weekly preacher emails, preacher calls and conferences, some of which may be hosted at Unbound’s global headquarters in Kansas City, KS
- may have occasional opportunities to travel internationally to experience our work firsthand
Unbound’s experienced Outreach & Account Development team manages all aspects of scheduling and executing your weekend visits, in coordination with you. We connect with parishes, handle travel arrangements, and supply materials and volunteer assistance so you can concentrate on preaching.
About you:
Unbound preachers share a heart for the poor and desire to connect with the Catholic faithful in the U.S. by offering an effective and trustworthy way for Catholics to put their faith into action. Many of our preachers have experience with international missions or working with those living in poverty. We are looking for priests in good standing with their bishops and religious superiors. Fluency in an additional language to English is a plus.
About Unbound:
Unbound was founded by lay Catholics in 1981 and is grounded in Catholic social teaching to put the needs of the vulnerable first. Since the start of our Catholic outreach program, more than 130 priests have served as Unbound preachers, traveling to parishes across the U.S. and inviting Catholics to sponsor children and elders in Africa, Asia and Latin America.
