A part-time communications coordinator costs a school $35,000–$40,000 a year — and larger dioceses split the job across three salaried directors. Most Catholic schools can't justify even one hire, so the work falls on teachers who are already stretched thin, or it simply doesn't get done. MC Media exists to close that gap.
Services

The full communications role. Handled.

One partnership covers your entire media presence — website, social, email, video, and events — so your staff can focus on their mission while you show up beautifully online.

Website Content & Upkeep

Content updates, new photos, event postings, and small visual tweaks on your existing platform — eCatholic, WordPress, or otherwise. Backend builds are a separate MC Website service, so the retainer stays clear and predictable.

Social Media, Everywhere

Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, and YouTube — unlimited posting on a consistent cadence built for algorithmic reach, plus daily engagement with the wider Catholic community.

Email & Newsletters

Parent e-newsletters and announcement emails, set up and sent on whatever cadence your community expects — one less thing for the front office.

Brand Consistency & Reporting

One voice and one identity across web, social, and email — with a monthly recap to leadership on what was published and how it performed.

Monthly Event Coverage

One event per month covered in person with professional equipment (up to one hour), edited and published. Additional coverage available at $30/hour.

Before working with Manny, our website and social media were one more thing on my plate that never got the attention they deserved. He took all of it off our hands, and within months parents were mentioning at pickup that they'd seen our students online. I never have to explain why a feast day matters or how to photograph a school Mass reverently — he already knows. That's rare, and it's why I recommend him to other principals.

Manny built us a complete demo site before we ever signed anything — that told me everything about how he works. The finished build was fast, mobile-friendly, and exactly what we asked for, and every request since has been handled within a day. You're not dealing with an agency ticket queue. You're dealing with someone who treats your mission like his own.

Past Web Design ClientCatholic Institution · Houston, TX

I've watched Manny serve the Church long before this was ever a business — teaching RCIA, leading the Archdiocesan Youth Council, sitting across from bishops with a microphone in hand. MC Media isn't a marketing venture for him. It's the same mission he's always been on, now offered with professional polish to the schools that need it most.

About

Faith-native. Not faith-adjacent.

MC Media is run by Manrique "Manny" Campos — not a marketing freelancer who happened to take on a Catholic client, but someone already embedded in Catholic institutional life in Houston.

Manny chairs the Archdiocesan Youth Council, teaches RCIA, hosts The Manny Perspective — a podcast whose guests include a cardinal and multiple bishops — and founded The Faith Bank, a Catholic nonprofit that partners with Ascension Press and Rugged Rosaries.

That matters because schools and parishes don't just need someone who can edit video and manage a website. They need someone who understands Catholic identity, tone, and audience without being told — who knows what a feast day post should feel like, how to photograph a school Mass reverently, and why enrollment season matters to a principal.

Catholic schools are the preferred partner. But any school that wants professional, consistent, mission-minded media is welcome here.

"You're getting the work of a full communications and media coordinator for well under what that position would cost to hire directly — from someone who's already part of Catholic institutional life."

FAQ

Questions principals ask.

Why not just hire a communications coordinator?

You can — for $35,000–$49,000 a year, plus benefits, training, and management. Larger dioceses split this work across three separate director roles. MC Media delivers the communications half of that job — website content, social media, email, and event media — for a small fraction of a single salary, with no hiring risk and no one to manage. For most tuition-conscious schools, that's the difference between having a media presence and not having one.

We already use eCatholic. Does that work?

Perfectly. MC Media manages and updates your existing platform — eCatholic included. Nothing has to move, migrate, or change unless you want a full redesign.

What do you need from us?

Very little. Staff or parent volunteers share raw photos and video from school life through a shared folder — MC Media handles editing, scheduling, posting, engagement, and website upkeep from there. Your team's total time investment is minutes per week.

Do you only work with Catholic schools?

Catholic schools and parishes are the heart of this work and always will be, and any school — private, charter, or public — that wants a professional, consistent media presence is welcome. Small businesses aren't the current focus, but if you think we might be a fit, send a short email to [email protected] about your business and goals and we'll take a look together.

Does the retainer include backend website work?

No — and that's deliberate. The retainer covers content, visual upkeep, and posting: new photos, text, event postings, and small layout tweaks. Backend development, hosting, servers, and security belong to the separate MC Website service (from $2,000). Keeping that line clear is what keeps the flat annual fee honest and predictable.

How does event coverage work?

One event per month is included: MC Media attends in person, films with professional equipment for up to an hour, then edits and publishes the content. Need more? Additional coverage is $30/hour.

How do we measure whether it's working?

Every month your principal receives a short recap: what was posted, how it performed, and how your audience is growing. Research shows this matters — 41% of school officials in a national survey directly attributed enrollment increases to their social media efforts.
