John Leyendecker lived a prodigal lifestyle before his conversion to Catholicism in 1999. He sought fulfillment in drugs, alcohol and unchaste relationships. From that place of brokenness, John shares what Jesus Christ has done in his life. Sharing the truth of Christ and His Church in numerous venues over the years makes him even more passionate about the work of the New Evangelization. John is currently the director of The Holy Family School of Faith in Cincinnati, Ohio, where he lives with his wife and their eight children. On January 1, 2020, John spoke at The Fellowship of Catholic University Students (FOCUS) in Phoenix AZ.
