Kairos Global has once again been honoured at the *2026 Catholic Media Association (CMA) Awards, receiving *Second Place for Magazine of the Year in the Prayer and Spirituality category for the second consecutive year. The magazine also won Second Place for Best Regular Column for Chandeliers, a popular feature that presents the lives of saints in an engaging and appealing format.

This recognition marks the fourth consecutive year that Kairos Global has received awards from the prestigious Catholic Media Association, a globally respected Catholic media organisation based in the United States.
