Mark Your Calendars for the “Restored” Parish Mission & Group Launch!


We are excited to announce the upcoming “Restored” Parish Mission happening February 20th-21st, 2026. This powerful mission will be led by John Edwards, Catholic evangelist and host of the popular Just a Guy in the Pew podcast.


John will share his inspiring testimony
of transformation from drug addiction to discipleship, highlighting the importance of restoring our identity as beloved sons and daughters of the Father and the vital need for a personal relationship with Jesus Christ.


The mission will take place Friday evening and Saturday morning, and is
open to all men and women of the parish.


Additionally, after the mission concludes,
John will host a Men’s Group Leadership Training session to help us launch an exciting new group for the men of our parish. This is a fantastic opportunity to grow in faith and fellowship.


We encourage everyone to attend and invite others to join in this life-changing experience. Full details and schedule are below!


We look forward to seeing you there!

The Holy Spirit wants His Church Back. 

We are living in one of the most exciting times in the history of the Church, as the Holy Spirit is transforming the Church with his Holy Fire (CCC 696). 

This 3 night mission will empower your church to live more fully into what Christ purchased through His death and resurrection.​

Nightly sessions include: 

- Encountering The Father's Love 

- Forgiveness & Redemption

- Fire & Fullness of Confirmation
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, and to see unity among all Christians.

Bart Schuchts is the founder of Church on Fire and has been associated with the John Paul II Healing Center since its inception. Church On Fire is a ministry committed to seeing the church live in the love and goodness of the Father, the victory of Jesus Christ, and the fire and power of the Holy Spirit.
