Kathleen Beckman is a dynamic evangelist, best-selling author and Ignatian retreat leader who has served the Church for thirty years. She is often featured on Catholic TV and radio and had addressed laity, nuns, and clergy in thirteen counties on subjects such as prayer, the protection and promotion of marriage and families, intercession for priests, and living a Eucharistic life. In 2001 she was invested into the Equestrian Order of the Holy Sepulcher of Jerusalem.

Since 2008 Kathleen has served in the Church’s ministry of healing, deliverance, and exorcism. She was on faculty for the Pope Leo XIII Institute for six years, completed the Association of International Exorcists Course at Rome’s Pontifical Regina Apostolorum University in 2017, and serves as the diocesan administrator of exorcism and deliverance ministry. A member of the exorcist’s team, she accompanies persons seeking liberation from evil spirits, and witnesses to Christ’s victory.

In 2013, with encouragement of the Congregation for the Clergy, she co-founded, with Monsignor Stephen Doktorczyk, JCD, the “Foundation of Prayer for Priests”, an apostolate of intercessory prayer and Eucharistic Adoration for the holiness of priests.
