 Join Us in St. Louis!

Connect with peers and engage in forward-thinking conversations beneath the iconic Gateway Arch at the CBA 2025 Annual Conference.

This year’s theme, “Gathering Under the Arch: Exploring the Future of Benefits,” invites leaders from faith-based benefit organizations to come together—not only to learn, but to listen, share insights, and support one another.

Just as the Arch stands as a gateway to new frontiers, our time together will open doors to fresh opportunities for partnership, innovation, and stronger peer networks

The Annual Conference is CBA’s flagship event, bringing together approximately 300 professionals from Protestant, Catholic, and Jewish organizations across the country. Attendees include CEOs and C-suite leaders, human resources and benefits professionals, and experts in marketing, customer service, education, and operations.

This unique interfaith gathering fosters collaboration, inspires new ideas, and advances our shared mission of strengthening benefits in the faith-based sector.
