About Mari Pablo
Mari (“Mah-dee”) Pablo is a proud Hispanic and cradle Catholic whose life was wrecked in the best possible way when she finally decided to stop fighting and surrender it all to Jesus. She holds bachelor degrees in theology and psychology from the Franciscan University of Steubenville, as well as a master’s degree in theology from the Augustine Institute. Mari has worked in ministry for over fifteen years, as a youth minister, high school theology teacher and consultant.
Mari is the founder of In His Heart ministries, a bilingual ministry dedicated to bringing hearts closer to Jesus’ Sacred Heart. Mari is well known for her dynamic presentations at the annual Steubenville Youth Conferences and other national outlets. Mari is a presenter in several Ascension presents programs including “YOU: Theology of the Body” for teens, Ascension Presents and “Connected: Catholic Social Teaching” for this generation.
Mari’s mission is simple, to encourage others to refuse to settle for the things of this world, but rather to strive for more, to strive for Him.
