John Beaulieu has dedicated over 40 years to sharing the Catholic faith and witnessing the power and presence of the Holy Spirit to both youth and adults. His journey in ministry began during his two-year tenure as a missionary with NET Ministries. After graduating from Franciscan University, he continued his vocation as a full-time youth minister, serving parishes in Texas, Colorado, North Carolina, and Ohio, where he developed thriving youth programs.
In 2003, John returned to Franciscan University and served for a decade as the Director of Youth Conferences within the Conference Office. Subsequently, he took on the role of Director of Evangelization and Formation, a position he held for 11 years. In this capacity, he mentored and contributed to the spiritual development of hundreds of students, fostering leaders grounded in spiritual growth. In addition, he hosted a series of webinars on the spiritual life that were attended by thousands of people from around the world.
John has been an active participant in the renewal movement for nearly four decades and currently serves on the Board of Pentecost Today, USA. In October 2024, he transitioned from his role at Franciscan University to pursue his calling as a full-time missionary evangelist through his apostolate, Romans 5:5. His speaking engagements span parish, diocesan, and national events. His ministry features retreats, missions, keynotes, and spiritual formation, where he addresses thousands of teens and adults annually.
