Currently Oratory Consulting is a one man operation. Founded by Steve Moffitt in 2006, Oratory Consulting has provided successful consulting services to a variety of Catholic Non Profit Ministries across the country. Some of our past clients include Catholic Schools, Catholic Radio Stations, and Catholic Ministries. We’ve successfully raised tens of thousands of dollars for our clients.

The word Oratory describes a gathering of the devout to worship God in a less formal setting than at the Holy Mysteries (Mass) at which the members present worship God through a collaboration of thought, spiritual reading - primarily Holy Scripture, hymns (old and new), and vocal prayer. This concept was developed by St. Phillip Neri, (1515-1595) in 16th century Italy. At its height, it was attended by some of the Church’s most notable members.

While St. Phillip is not known as the patron of media he was well known for his work among the poor and as a reformer of individuals. So much so that he was often referred to as the Apostle of Rome. He is the patron saint of Rome, but also of the U.S. Special Forces. It is for his work of individual reform and for his creation of the Oratory that we chose him for our namesake.

St. Phillip Neri, Pray for us that we by your intercession and that of Our Blessed Mother Mary, Immaculate from Conception, may reform ourselves and our work continually until that day when Our Lord stands us before Him and says, “Well done, good and faithful servant.” Amen.
