Deacon Steve Greco, evangelist, documentary producer

Deacon Steve Greco shares about his powerful documentary, Jesus Thirsts: The Miracle of the Eucharist, which embarks on a global journey to rediscover and revive the transformative power of the Eucharist. Engaging in dialogues with notable Catholic figures, the film explores the biblical origins of the Eucharist and shares personal stories of individuals whose lives have been transformed. Jesus Thirsts makes it unmistakably clear the Eucharist is not merely a symbol, but is indeed Jesus Christ Himself. Hear about the extraordinary fruits of the film, which is helping to reignite the faith of Catholics everywhere. With his contagious enthusiasm and remarkable stories of healing and faith restoration, Deacon Greco also shares his incredible faith journey starting from a “cradle Catholic” to becoming a leading figure in evangelization, his passion for the Eucharist, and his ministry’s impact. He stresses how God is calling all of us to return to Him, especially through the transformative power of the Eucharist, and how placing Christ at the center of our lives and marriages can transform everything.

Deacon Steve Greco admits that while born Catholic, he was largely a cultural Catholic until a co-worker introduced him to the power of the Holy Spirit in his 20s. Married to Mary Ann for 52 years, they have three children and four grandchildren. Shortly after leaving corporate life and moving to the Los Angeles area, Deacon Greco was invited to study for the diaconate and has been a Deacon for 17 years. He and his wife are actively involved in evangelization through their Spirit Filled Hearts ministry.
