Matt Regitz

Matt Regitz took over his struggling home parish youth program in Houston after working five years as an oilfield salesman. Fifteen years later, Matt is still sharing the Gospel with the teens at Prince of Peace Church while reaching thousands more around the country. Matt graduated from Texas A&M and has a master’s in theology from the University of St. Thomas. When he’s not sharing the Gospel, he loves to do Crossfit, brew coffee, groom his epic beard, and hang out with the Regitz clan, which is made up of his bride, Stephanie, four kids, and their daughter in heaven, Mary Clare.

Sr. Mary Elizabeth Albers, SOLT

Sister Mary Elizabeth Albers, SOLT, is a member of the Society of Our Lady of the Most Holy Trinity, a missionary community with a Marian-Trinitarian spirituality. As a student athlete at Benedictine College in Atchison, KS, Sister Mary Elizabeth experienced the transformation of her campus culture in the founding years of the Fellowship of Catholic University Students (FOCUS), while leading a Bible study for female athletes. After graduating with a B.A in English and Mass Communications, she followed the advice of her brother, a Benedictine monk, and traveled to a border town in Belize, Central America to serve as a missionary teacher in a SOLT-run high school. The life of prayer, community and service she experienced there opened her heart to a deeper encounter with the Lord. She entered SOLT in 2006 and professed final vows in 2014. Currently, Sister Mary Elizabeth lives in Corpus Christi, TX, and serves as the vocation servant for her community and secretary to the General Superior.

Father John Parks

Father John Parks is a priest for the Diocese of Phoenix, Arizona.

Father Parks was ordained a priest in 2010 and will begin teaching high school theology at Notre Dame Preparatory High School in Scottsdale, Arizona, next year. Father Parks has a great passion for the Gospel and loves being a priest.
