“…After class, the students were commenting on how valuable an experience it had been to them. Your openness and willingness to share information and issues germane to being President [of Ascension] is a powerful teaching tool for us.”

“I just wanted to let you know how much I enjoyed your talk. You really hit the mark about how blessed we really are to be Catholic–sometimes we forget or take it for granted. Thank you for your uplifting talk.”

“Matt’s love for the Catholic Faith and the Church shines through in his presentations, and his passion for embracing the work of the New Evangelization is infectious.”

“His enthusiastic, witty, and solid presentation of the Faith with its history and heroes really motivated our youth.  Proof of Matt’s ability to reach their hearts and minds was evident in the questions they asked at the end of the talk.”

“By situating Adult Faith Formation in the heart of the New Evangelization, Matt helped our people to see the urgency and importance of providing formation for our people that not only touches them intellectually, but ultimately brings them into an authentic encounter with Jesus Christ.”

“Matt Pinto has been on the cutting edge of Adult Faith Formation for decades – through his writings, his presentations, and his leadership with Ascension Press. When you look around the landscape at who has done the most to help form adult Catholics in our nation, Matt stands out as someone the Lord has used in a powerful way.”
