From Formation to Mission: TLI and THL

Imagine Catholic professionals standing at Tepeyac, praying and learning together, then returning to their nations with renewed fire for mission. Imagine a network of lay leaders who know each other, support each other, and stand together across borders and professions.

Formation leads to mission. Mission requires courage. And courage begins with saying “yes.”

For years, Tepeyac Leadership has been preparing Catholic professionals to embrace their vocation as leaders. Through formation, mentorship, and fellowship, we have helped men and women discover that their careers are not simply jobs, but a mission field.

Yet formation is never the end. Formation is always for mission.

The Hour of the Laity 2025 is the moment when years of preparation bear fruit. It is where leaders formed by TLI, and countless others, will come together to be commissioned for the task of sanctifying society. THL2025 is not about information, but transformation. It is about equipping Catholic professionals to go forth boldly into every corner of culture as witnesses of Christ.

Every Mass ends with a commissioning, “Go forth, the Mass is ended.” The word Mass itself comes from missio, meaning “sending.” The Church gathers us, forms us, and then sends us. The same rhythm applies to leadership. TLI has been forming leaders, and THL2025 is the sending.

Imagine Catholic professionals standing at Tepeyac, praying and learning together, then returning to their nations with renewed fire for mission. Imagine a network of lay leaders who know each other, support each other, and stand together across borders and professions.

This is the fruit of formation. This is what the Church needs today.

The world does not need Catholic leaders who remain silent or hidden. It needs leaders who are bold, visible, and faithful. Leaders who see their profession as a path to holiness and their workplace as a mission territory. Leaders ready not only to participate in culture, but to transform it.

At Tepeyac Hill, under the mantle of Our Lady, you will be reminded of your mission. You will be equipped with the tools to carry it out. And you will be sent forth with confidence, knowing you are not alone, but part of a global movement of Catholic leaders.

Formation leads to mission. Mission requires courage. And courage begins with saying “yes.”

Will you join us at Tepeyac and say your “yes”?

Their elevation to the altars is a powerful affirmation that holiness is not the exception but the calling of every baptized person, especially those whose mission is carried out in society.

There is no more fitting place for The Hour of the Laity than Tepeyac Hill. Just as Mary once said to Juan Diego, “Am I not here, who am your Mother?”, she now says to us: I am with you in your mission to sanctify the world.

Authentic Leadership: What the World Desperately Needs

Authentic leadership means courage in the face of cultural pressure. It means integrity when compromise is easier. It means hope when the world is tempted by despair. And it means being willing to stand for truth, even when it costs.
