The Spirit of Hecker Awards are named after our founder, Servant of God Fr. Isaac Hecker, C.S.P. Awards will be presented to individuals from each of the parishes and centers where we serve, as well as to individuals involved with our national ministries.

Awardees are selected for their extraordinary dedication to the Paulist mission to go beyond the walls of the Church to share the Good News of Jesus Christ.

Keeping with the Paulist charism, awardees share their strong belief that the Holy Spirit is at work in people, the Church, and the world.

Note: The segments of the Spirit of Hecker Awards were filmed prior to the death of His Holiness, Pope Francis. Our program is dedicated to his blessed memory.
