Katherine Angulo, M.A.

As the Director of Pastoral Enrichment Programs, Katherine directs five important outreach efforts, up to $19 million supported by Lilly Endowment Inc. The newest, called Pathways to Communion, aims to strengthen the ecosystem of theologically informed service opportunities for young Catholics in the United States. Katherine also works to prepare pastoral leaders for long-term ministry in the Church in the Strong Foundations for Catholic Leaders program; provides intellectual and spiritual renewal for invited diocesan priests in the Bishop John M. D'Arcy Program in Priestly Renewal; and is partnering with Iskali to create cultures of affiliation in the Hispanic Catholic Church in the United States through the Young Adult Innovation Hub. The Holy Family of Nazareth as the foundation for catechetical renewal within the domestic Hispanic Church guides the Holy Family Initiative for Family Catechesis program, which is being piloted in the Archdiocese of San Antonio and Diocese of Raleigh, NC.

Born in Mexico and raised in Colombia, Katherine received her B.A. in Modern Languages in 2000 and her M.A. in Pastoral Ministries in 2005. She has more than 22 years of experience in parish and diocesan ministry. She is part of the Board of Advisors for the Lilly Endowment in Thriving in Ministry Initiatives. She also serves on the Board of Governors for the Mexican American Catholic Colleges (MACC), and on the Board of Advisors for the Nuevo Momento initiative from Boston College.

Katherine lives in Granger, Indiana. She takes every opportunity to travel to new places but always makes it a priority to visit her family in Tampa and Bogotá.
