How Catholic Creators Are Spreading the Gospel Online

As digital platforms continue to shape modern communication, Catholic content creators are emerging as a powerful force in the Church’s mission of evangelization. Through Instagram, YouTube, TikTok, and other social media outlets, a growing number of laypeople and clergy are creating faith-centered content to reach audiences far beyond the walls of their parishes.

Desirae Sifuentes, known online as UncatechizedCatholic, uses her platform of over 70,000 followers to provide accessible catechesis for fellow Catholics who, like her, weren’t deeply formed in the faith during childhood. A theology student and mother of six, she describes her work as part of the “new evangelization” inspired by Vatican II, using online outreach as a gateway to deeper faith engagement.

Emily Wilson, a speaker and author with more than 120,000 Instagram followers, shares content focused on encouraging women in their vocations and spiritual journeys. Though she avoids calling herself a content creator, she believes sharing heartfelt, authentic reflections online plays a crucial role in helping others discover the joy and peace of the Catholic faith.

Kira and Jeff Andrea of Mercy Divine Music transitioned from secular music to Catholic evangelization through song. With a combined social following of over 450,000, they create reels, hymns, and prayer videos that showcase the beauty of Catholic tradition, emphasizing reverence and Eucharistic devotion.

Alexandro Jurado, known as Voice of Reason, engages in apologetics and dialogue with non-Catholics. With nearly half a million followers across TikTok, YouTube, and Instagram, he sees digital evangelists as the new catechists of the Church, noting that many now look to social influencers for faith formation rather than traditional parish settings.

Each of these digital evangelists emphasizes that online content is not a replacement for in-person worship or formation—but rather a gateway for seekers and a supplement for the faithful. Their combined efforts reveal a shift in how the Church engages culture: not just by resisting technology, but by using it wisely to witness to Christ.
