— Why join the Pray More Healing Retreat? — 

Bart Schuchts is the founder of Church on Fire and has been associated with the John Paul II Healing Center since its inception.

Bart has been in ministry across the body of Christ for over 30 years. Bart grew up in a Catholic home yet drifted away from God while in college. Following a desperate plea to God while sitting in an NFL locker room, Bart had a powerful encounter with the Father’s love that Transformed his life forever.

Bart travels the country presenting at conferences and retreats, bringing thousands into an intimate and powerful encounter with the Father’s love, transforming lives, and equipping people to live more fully into Christ’s mission.

Bart’s passion is to see the Church Transformed and equipped to live into the fullness of Her 2000 year history.

Bart is married to Brooke and they have four children: Hannah, Gabrielle, Kailey and Joshua.

A pastor summed it up well when he said, “Bart is one of the most passionate men for God that I know… His heart is for people to live into the fullness of who they are Called to be.”

With over 20 years in ministry, Mary has spoken to over 100,000 adults, young adults and teens around the world at parish missions, ministry trainings, retreats, and conferences.

As a certified Life Coach, Mary is trained in various models of coaching and healing prayer including Unbound by Neal Lozano, I AM Healing Prayer by Dr. Bob Schuchts, and HeartSync by Fr.

Sr Orianne Pietra René, fsp, was born into a multi-cultural and multi-faith home, and converted to Catholicism at a young age.  After years of ongoing little conversions of heart, she left a teaching career to enter the Daughters of St Paul, a community of religious sisters dedicated to proclaiming the Gospel through the most effective means of communication, as St Paul did. Sr Orianne’s greatest wish is for all people to find their healing, their belonging, and their joy in Christ!
