"Living The Faith"
Travels from: Dayton, Ohio Michael has 5 years of experience as a full-time and part-time youth minister in the Archdiocese of Cincinnati. During those years, Michael started his speaking career and for the past three years, he has focused his efforts on answering God’s call to spreading the Catholic faith to Catholics, practicing and non-practicing, around the world. His engaging and motivating talks have inspired and encouraged Catholics of all ages all over the United States to live out their Catholic faith in their every day lives. Michael has spoke at and led many different styles of retreats, conferences, youth rallies, parish missions, schools, speaker series and much more. He has spoken to preteens thru adults on a variety of topics and has had the honor in speaking to groups as small and personal as 20 people to over 1,000 people at a time. Each time he is commended on what he does and his approach in doing it. Bringing Michael out for your event is something your participants will not forget! He takes our rich Catholic faith and applies it to the audience’s every day life. No matter what the topic may be, Michael’s goal when speaking at an event is to take the listeners on a journey of faith and life and point them to Jesus Christ and His Holy, Apostolic Catholic Church. He also enjoys being able to talk with the participants after the program. Michael is endorsed by the Salesians of Don Bosco, his Archdiocese and CFCA (Christian Foundation For Children and Aging). CFCA is a Catholic sponsorship program that Michael works closely with. They support more than 310,000 impoverished children and aging persons in 24 countries. Through the generous support of their 270,000 sponsors, they provide food, housing, clothing, education and the Catholic faith to its children and aging. In addition to speaking, Michael has a monthly segment, Magazine Rack Morality, on EWTN’s Sonrise Morning Show, at 7:48 am every first Friday of the month. Magazine Rack Morality takes popular topics young adults and adults deal with in the secular media and give the Catholic response to those topics. He is also currently working on many new projects to be released toward the end of 2009 and beginning of 2010. Referrals “If you are looking for a speaker who will fire up the people in the audience, who will reach into the depths of their soul, who will encourage them and inspire them into a stronger, deeper faith life, Michael Walsh is the speaker for you.” -- Brian Patrick, Host of the Son Rise Morning Show on Sacred Heart Radio and EWTN Radio and Host of EWTN’s Crossing the Goal  Michael has been evangelizing and educating youth in the Salesian Youth Movement for the past five years at youth rallies, mission trips and Boys and Girls Clubs. I highly recommend him. Michael is so good as a youth minister that he has trained other youth ministers in St. John Bosco’s style, spirit and method. He has the gifts of friendliness, comedy, and down to earth simplicity and the ability to share faith and values. Most importantly, Michael is 100% Catholic and his preaching is totally doctrinally sound. The way he presents the faith is also very attractive to the young. This combination makes him an excellent evangelist. Michael is sound-morally and is spiritually grounded. He is joyful, giving, and very much in love with Jesus and the Church. -- Father Steve Ryan, SDB - Provincial Councilor for Youth and Young Adult Ministry and Director of Vocations for the Salesians of Don Bosco, Eastern Province Referrals "Michael Walsh is more than a speaker, he’s an inspiration. He communicates the light of Christ not only with his words, but with his creative and energetic presence. His hip sense of style attracts people’s attention. His natural gift for storytelling intrigues his listeners. His faith inspires those who encounter him to change their lives for the better. Michael's ministry is an invaluable gift to youth who so desperately need positive young role models to learn from and look up to in today's world." -- Gina M.
