Jesse Romero

Catholic Lay Evangelist

 

An expert in Boxing, Martial arts and contact sports.  That was how Jesse Romero used to channel his competitive fire, his spirit.  Then, in 1986, a fellow officer challenged Jesse to pick up a bible, and use faith instead of force as a way to find escape from the pressures of police life.  That event began a transformation that continues to benefit us today.  For in the Bible, Jesse rediscovered his Catholic roots.  He also discovered how most Catholics really don’t understand the basics of their faith, choosing to live out their lives in a kind of spiritual coma.  For them – and us – Jesse is a five-alarm wakeup call.

 

You see, during his years as a Deputy Sheriff, Jesse experienced the dark side of society everyday; yet also saw the evidence of God’s work in some of the most unexpected places. What made the difference? Faith in JESUS CHRIST.

 

Today, Jesse is committed to keeping the Faith alive by speaking at parishes and Catholic events throughout the United States.  As a speaker, Jesse has the ability to make the sometimes-complex teachings of the Faith understandable with his straight talk Christ-centered approach.  His messages may be simple but when delivered with energy and conviction that has become a Jesse Romero trademark, the audience is left with the indelible impression that our Catholic Faith is something to be worn visibly and proudly, not kept hidden away (Matt 5: 14-16).  The phrase “use it or lose it” takes on a whole new meaning in his hands.
