FRANCESCO SALGADO

B.A., CATHOLIC THEOLOGY & PHILOSOPHY

FORMER SEMINARIAN

12 YEARS YOUTH MINISTRY - 5 YEARS Y.A MINISTRY

Francesco has spent more than 12 years immersing himself in bilingual ministry by leading music ministries, youth groups, and retreats. He began his service through his gift of music, writing and composing songs for retreat, arranging music parts for each band member.

Faith, music, and family are the driving forces and biggest passions in Francesco's life. After receiving his degree in Architecture, The Lord and Our Lady took Him to Lourdes, France where he felt called to discern the Priesthood. After graduating from the Minor Seminary he received a B.A. in Theology & Philosophy, as well as a stronger understanding of the Vocation of Marriage he had been called to pursue.

Soon after he met his wife Veronica who shared his calling and a deep passion for Catholic music and ministry. He served as the Coordinator of Evangelization and Parish Life for the Archdiocese of Miami for a year before starting his M.A. in Theology and feeling called to start his fulltime Ministry in music and speaking.

Francesco is known for sharing the Faith through speaking and music in a captivating, relatable and relevant way while remaining True to the Catholic Church and Her Teachings. This experience ultimately brought him to the decision of starting an Apostolate and business Fall Afresh Catholic Media to share his experience and his love for the Lord to as many hearts as he can reach.

Francesco is currently the President of Fall Afresh Catholic Media and continues to write music and minister to his community. His specialties are: Identity in Christ, Ministry and Discipleship, Discernment, Vocation, Men's Ministry, and Music.
