The directory

Find a Catholic neighbor doing good work

Search by name, narrow by trade, or look closer at the city you live in. New listings are added quietly, one at a time.

Listings are reviewed for appropriateness and alignment with the movement. The directory is not an official endorsement by any diocese or parish — it is the work of Catholic neighbors helping neighbors find each other. About Directory Listings.

A quiet study with a microphone, an open notebook, and warm lamplight — the setting for a Live IT Toledo Podcast conversation.

Live IT Toledo

Podcast

Stories of faith, lived in the real world.

Featured Episode

A full episode of the Live IT Toledo Podcast, built around you.

An annual Mission Partner distinction

The distinction

Annual Mission Partners receive one exclusive, professionally produced audio + video featured episode — telling the story of the faith, family, vocation, leadership, people, purpose, and convictions behind their work.

An advertisement disappears. A story someone chooses to listen to does not — it remains an enduring introduction to the people, faith, and purpose behind your work.
