Since experiencing a radical call to conversion at the age of 24, Mario has been a highly sought-after Catholic Speaker around the world most known for his conversion story from a \u201cHollywood to Holy-wood\u201d. A young man without faith turned overnight into a passionate Eucharist-loving daily Mass-attending proud Roman Catholic Christian. After experiencing his first World Youth Day in Toronto, 2002, he attended Franciscan University of Steubenville studying Catechetics, Philosophy, Theology and TV\/Film. While there he was offered the opportunity to work for the manager of the most notable Catholic actor in Hollywood Jim Caviezel (Passion of the Christ). Leaving Steubenville, he spent a decade working as a producer of Catholic media projects and speaking as a missionary on every continent, mostly to youth and young adults.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In 2012 he left his final long term Mission in India and settled back in the US. He finished his undergraduate in Texas, graduating Magna Cum Laude from the Mexican American Catholic College with a degree in Pastoral Ministry. While in Texas, he met his wife and they have two beautiful young children and look forward to growing that family.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\">Mario St. Francis Herrera&#8217;s Retreats and Talks<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-css-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2018 Healing Retreat<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div align=\"center\" class=\"youtube-responsive-container\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/5NEZKSPAcSY?rel=0&amp;modestbranding=1\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"564\" frameborder=\"0\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/praymoreretreat.org\/letting-god-make-the-most-of-a-broken-past-part-i-healing-2018\/\">Letting God Make the Most of a Broken Past, Part I<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Letting God Making the Most of A Broken Past, Part II<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Letting God Making the Most of A Broken Past, Part III<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Letting God Making the Most of A Broken Past, Part IV<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Letting God Make the Most of a Broken Past, Part V<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/praymoreretreat.org\/2018-healing-retreat\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Click here to register for this retreat to get all of his 2018 Healing Retreat Talks.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\">Connect with Mario St. Francis Herrera<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Website<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/mariostfrancis.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Mario St. Francis<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Social Media<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/MarioSaintFrancis\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Facebook\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\">Register for the Next Retreat!<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-css-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">We have more amazing speakers on each of our retreats!
