5 Stones

God is doing something amazing. And we are grateful to be a part of it.

5 Stones is a Catholic nonprofit that partners with mission-driven organizations to magnify their messages of truth, beauty, and goodness. Drawing our identity from the biblical narrative of David defeating the seemingly unassailable Goliath, we seek to be a tool in the hands of the many "Davids" that put their vision and talents at the service of the Church today.

Christmas may feel far away, but for Catholic businesses and apostolates, now is the time to prepare. 🎄

We put together a Christmas planning checklist to help you get ahead on inventory, promotions, fulfillment, customer service, and communications before the holiday rush hits.

Plus, this year Advent begins right in the middle of Black Friday/Cyber Monday weekend—making early planning even more important.

🎁 Read the blog and use the checklist to get ready: https://www.weare5stones.com/post/how-to-get-your-catholic-apostolate-ready-for-the-advent-christmas-seasons

Our summer writing intern wrote a blog post on what she learned about Catholic marketing and copywriting during her time with us. She also dove into what being an intern is like here at 5 Stones!

Check out the post to see her insights about what marketing looks like at our Catholic apostolate!

At 5 Stones, we are always striving to answer God’s call in the same way Mary did. Her consistent “yes” is an example we seek to follow each day.

As we celebrate our Blessed Mother's reunion with her Son in Heaven on this Solemnity of the Assumption, we pray for her intercession in an effort to be more like her.

Blessed Virgin Mary, pray for us!

The idea has been sold to creators for over a decade. Make something valuable, and the platform gods will bless you with traffic, conversions, and maybe—just maybe—some passive income while you sleep.

That’s not how this works.

This convenient, profitable myth keeps Big Tech in control and creators blaming themselves when things flop. It’s time to call it what it is: a rigged system where the house always wins. But you don’t have to play by their rules.

Read at the link to discover how Annunciate provides true discoverability, with data and channels you own, and an experience you can control.

Today we celebrate the feast of Saints Martha, Mary, and Lazarus.

These siblings all played a part in Jesus' public ministry, and their example reminds us of how we too can grow closer to Christ.

Join us in a prayer to these sibling-saints today through the link in our bio!

Deferred maintenance. Climbing utility bills. A boiler or a roof that’s about to fail. These are realities for so many organizations!

Thankfully, you don’t have to wait for a catastrophe to strike, and you don’t have to figure this all out on your own. Catholic Energies exists to walk with Catholic leaders as they steward the resources God has entrusted to their care.

We recently had the privilege of collaborating with their team on fresh brand messaging, a new visual identity, a fully updated website, and compelling conference materials that will help them share their mission with more leaders. It was a joy to support an organization so deeply invested in the long-term good of the Church.

Their new site is now live! Take a look → https://www.catholicenergies.org/

“We’re doing something incredible, but people don’t seem to get it.”

Sound familiar?

You have an amazing mission. But your branding may be holding you back.

For Catholic organizations, good branding takes more than a sharp logo and clever copy. It takes a partner who “speaks Catholic,” understands the nuances of your audience, and can help make your mission clear to the people you’re called to reach.

In our latest blog post, we explore:
• Why Catholic context matters
• How the right branding partner can help clarify your message
• What to look for when choosing an agency
