Deacon Ralph Poyo

Pentecost Today USA Board Member

As founder of New Evangelization Ministries, Deacon Ralph Poyo has become a useful tool for pastors in assisting them in training their parish leadership in evangelization.  He has traveled extensively around the country serving as an evangelist and benefits from four years of diocesan and parish venues.  With almost thirty years of parish ministry, he understands the complexities and diversities of various ministry environments.  When Deacon Ralph is not consulting with parishes (www.NewEvangelizationMinistries.org), he is a popular national speaker capable of speaking to a wide variety of audiences.  His passionate, humorous, and playful style has captivated adult and teen audiences across the country with the truth of the Gospel of Christ.  This presentation style disarms his audiences, and he speaks directly to the issues that plague our efforts in living the Catholic Faith. Deacon Ralph is married to his high school sweetheart, Susan, and has five daughters, two sons (in-law), and three grandkids.  He was appointed to the NSC Council in 2017.  (updated 3/2018)
