Welcome To The Catholic Curator
OUR VISION AND MISSION
The Catholic Curator helps Catholics
to fully integrate their faith and business life
to unleash the unlimited possibilities of God
in their lives and their careers.
​
Through this process we help people to achieve
their full God given potential
while also renewing the Church and the world.
We achieve this by practically and creatively
curating the best in
Catholic and business content,
together with opportunities for
collaboration and commerce.
We deliver this through the
integration of digital and printed media,
human connection, Catholic Commerce, Catholic Business Consulting and
the intercessions of the Saints!
​
We believe that God did not create us for mediocrity,
but for magnanimity, or greatness of soul.
Join us in becoming the great Saints
we were actually created to be, in and through our business lives.

Below is a summary of the sections of the site.
ABOUT THE CATHOLIC CURATOR
This platform is consecrated through the Immaculate Heart of Mary and the most chaste Heart of St. Joseph, to the Eucharistic Reign of Jesus Christ. May everything we do be through Him, with Him, In Him, in unity with the Holy Spirit, for the honor and glory of God the Father.
We also commend this platform’s success and protection to the intercession of St. Maximilian Kolbe,
St. Peter Julian Eymard,
St. Josemaria Escriva, St. Pio and St. Raphael the Archangel.
This consecration was made, by providence, on the Feast of St. Peter the Librarian.
Welcome! I am Joe Valentic, your Catholic Curator. This name is not something I chose, or sought for, but something that I was dubbed in those that know my heart. I was in a men's meeting one day and I was sharing something about the faith. A friend stopped me and said, "You know what you are Joe", cautious of what might come next, I smiled and listened. He said 'you are like a curator, a Catholic curator, always showing us what is best and beautiful in the Church.' We all got a laugh out of if, but there was something that resonated about this. As I prayed about developing a platform that could help people integrate faith and business, the phrase kept coming back to me. It would turn out to be a great way to capture both who I am at heart and what I hope to share through this platform.
Like a museum curator, I have passion for learning about my subject, to understand its provenance, its meaning, its beauty, and most importantly, how to share those treasures with others. Like a curator, I also love to tell stories. I have passion for telling stories about those things that Saint Paul says in Philippians 4:8 are true, honorable, just, pure, lovely, gracious, things of excellence, and things worthy of praise. It is of these I love to speak. To paraphrase Second Hand Lions, I like to share 'those things that are worth believing in'.
Last but not least, providentially, the word curator also has ties to Catholic history. The Latin history of this word carries with it the meaning: one who cares for the needs of others. The word was once used to refer to priests who cared for a parish. It is my hope in this work, to truly care for others, as well as, to keep care over the treasures of our Catholic faith and the wisdom of the business world that is not contrary to our faith.
​
All of this is for the purpose of helping people to become the fullness of who God created them to be in faith and in business, through the integration of the two. We will help people to understand and benefit from the fact that the pursuit of success in business and Sainthood are not opposed, but if done for God's glory, can achieve results never before imagined. The integration of the two can drive earthly and eternal rewards, as well as, create capital to grow the Kingdom!
Sharing a bit about my background will also add light to the synergy of this nom de plume. I have spent the last 26 years seeking how to live my Catholic faith as a husband, as a father of seven living children and two with the Lord, as a business person with over 30 years of experience working with hundreds of businesses over my career, and as a volunteer leader for Catholic apostolates for over 20 years. I currently own multiple businesses, including one dedicated to serving Catholics in business, Trinity Growth Services.
​
I am an author and have written two books. The first, How to Become a Saint By Succeeding in Business, is in the process of being published. The other, The Warrior Prayer Manual, is available for purchase on this site (see below). I am also co-founder of Our Lady of the Most Blessed Sacrament Apostolate, which is focused on the renewal of faith in the Real Presence of our Lord in the Holy Eucharist (see Eucharistic Revival page more details).
​
In short, the Catholic Curator is not simply a creative name, it is really something that captures the heart of my life, my love for the Catholic Church, and my desire to serve God and my neighbors through my business vocation and all of the gifts He has given me. It is very fitting for what I hope to do through this work, through my books, and through my business.

WE WILL BE PRAYING FOR YOU!
It is my commitment that we will keep all our clients needs in prayer and include them in all the daily prayers, rosaries, Blessed Sacrament chaplets, adoration times, and masses in which I participate. I pray that this work may be a great blessing on your journey to come to integrate your faith and business life, to become the fullness of who God created you to be, for His glory, and the salvation of souls!
