Who we are

A small team that answers the phone.

By Catholics for Catholics, with a shared mission to serve Christ.

How we started

It began with a parish that needed help.

We are practising Catholics who work in tech for a living.

We kept meeting the same problems outside work: parishes and Catholic organisations had old websites, which nobody could update, or relied on a volunteer who moved away years ago. When the Slovak Catholic Mission's site was attacked, we helped, and realised how many others were in the same position.

Renovatio IT exists to fix these issues and build something that lasts.

The team

Why Renovatio IT

The way we work, and why.

I

Working towards the common good

We are not driven by profit alone. We want every Catholic church to be up to date and welcoming to those seeking the truth.

II

We are transparent

We build things that last so you're not paying twice, and we're honest about what you actually need and what it is going to cost.

III

Enabling the parish team

We don't want to own your website. We will train your parish team to look after it and make their own updates, so you're never dependent on us.
