With Mass, vendors, breakout sessions, awards and a sales pitch competition, the Twin Cities-based St. Joseph Business Guild is hosting a special effort toward its goal of building a “Catholic economy,” guild founder Roger Vasko said. “If we don’t build a Catholic economy, someone will build a different economy for us,” Vasko, 67, said of businesses banding together in the guild to share expertise and find employees, customers and like-minded men and women of faith.
