Catholic parishes have both common and varied cultures. Commitment and engagement levels of parishioners have decreased. A shortage of priests has contributed to the limited presence of pastors and merging or closure of parishes. This study examined the correlations among measured attributes of parish organizational culture (parish culture), motivation, commitment, engagement, and the moderating role of servant leadership. Through a sequential explanatory mixed method, quantitative data were obtained by surveying 175 parishioners and following up with interviews by 34 purposefully selected parishioners in a Midwestern Diocese to explain the quantitative results. The initial quantitative analysis revealed that parish culture was marginally related to engagement (beta = .15, p = .054) and positively related to commitment (beta = .33, p < .001), which in turn contributed to engagement (beta = .45, p < .001). Motivation had a positive influence on commitment (beta = .19, p < .05) but did not moderate the relationship between parish culture and engagement. Servant leadership had main effects on parish culture, commitment, and engagement, but did not have any significant interactive effects. The revised analysis revealed that parish culture positively contributed to engagement (beta = .16, p < .05). The qualitative analysis revealed four major themes: (a) characters of parish life; (b) parish leadership; (c) attachment to a particular parish; (d) involvement in ministry; and (e) motivation in ministry. The study has implications for pastoral leaders and scholars.
