who we are

A Holy Life is a Catholic apostolate that seeks to help people grow in personal holiness.  We strive to do this by presenting the timeless truths of the Catholic Faith in an engaging and accessible way for ordinary Catholics of the 21st Century to apply in their own daily lives.

Deacon Patrick Simons is an Ordained Permanent Deacon of the Roman Catholic Church. 

 

Deacon Simons offers retreats, parish missions, and other public speaking throughout the Midwest.  His areas of focus include:

 

  • Holiness and Spirituality

  • Monasticism and Writings of the Saints Made Understandable and Applicable in the Modern World

  • Marriage, Family, and Fatherhood

Deacon Simons is known to have a unique ability to make complex and theologically deep subjects easy to understand and use in ordinary daily life.  He lives in Omaha, Nebraska with his wife, LuAnn, and five of their nine children who remain at home.

LuAnn Simons joins her husband, Deacon Simons, in giving talks on marriage and family.  She also periodically gives talks on homeschooling and motherhood.

 

Because of their central location in Omaha, Nebraska, Deacon and Mrs. Simons are available to speak at your parish, community, organization, or event throughout the Midwest.

We are happy to discuss any ideas you have.
