The guest speaker will be Fr. John Szada. Father Szada is a priest in our diocese. He attended Penn State University for his undergraduate degree and remains connected with the institution. Subsequently, he entered Mount Saint Mary's Seminary and was ordained in 1978, and Fr. Szada has now been a priest for 45 years. He pursued an interest in psychology after ordination, and received a PHD from Capella University in 2017. He was appointed the official exorcist of the diocese in 2011 and continues to function in that ministry, where he is receives numerous referrals and has performed a number of formal, solemn exorcism rights. Fr. Szada’s keen interest is in determining the cause of the affliction, mental illness, or spiritual attack, and completed his dissertation on the topic.
