Built by a Catholic Deacon, for parishes

I'm Deacon Richard, a Catholic deacon serving in the Archdiocese of Toronto, Ontario. Serving in parish ministry, I've seen how much time our staff and volunteers lose to scattered spreadsheets, endless email chains and paper sign-up sheets. Good people, slowed down by tools that weren't made for parish life.

After many years of discernment and prayer, a visit to then-Blessed Carlo Acutis in Assisi, Italy, and time in prayer before the same crucifix where St. Francis of Assisi so often prayed, I built My Parish Pal. It is designed with the help of modern technology and, more importantly, inspired by the Holy Spirit.

It is my prayer that parishes, priests, deacons and laity may continue to flourish with the help of this platform. After all, it is the Lord who is our designer and the source of all that is good and beautiful.

I'd love to show you how it can serve your parish.
