Through a new partnership with OSV News, Catholic Social Media (CSM) is making it easier for dioceses and parishes to access, schedule, and share high-quality Catholic content without adding more work to already full communications calendars.
As part of this partnership, OSV News, an offering of parent company Our Sunday Visitor (OSV), is providing access to its Simply Catholic Connect product for dioceses that are OSV News subscribers and also use CSM. Simply Catholic Connect is a dynamic online treasury of research-backed Catholic content designed for easy use across social media, email, websites, and parish bulletins. Built for today’s Catholics, it helps communicators share timely messages without adding more work to already full plates.
“Our goal with Simply Catholic Connect is to make it easier for dioceses and parishes to share meaningful Catholic content that truly resonates,” said Scott P. Richert, publisher at OSV. “Partnering with Catholic Social Media allows that content to reach people where they already are.”
Dioceses included in this offer can access curated Simply Catholic Connect content directly through CSM’s all-in-one scheduling platform, or by creating a Simply Catholic Connect account.
“This partnership is about saving time while expanding Catholic communications into every corner of the Church,” shared Deacon John Rogers, Director of Catholic Social Media. “By combining OSV’s trusted content with our scheduling and distribution tools, dioceses can focus on their mission, confident that the communications infrastructure is world class.”
Dioceses are encouraged to subscribe to Simply Catholic Connect to continue access after their trial period ends. Special diocesan pricing is available for OSV News subscribers.

We’re grateful for this partnership, and we hope dioceses and parishes enjoy this special access!
