Biography of Michael Voris
Michael Voris is the founder and
President of St. Michael’s Media and Sr.
Executive Producer of
ChurchMilitant.TV – two media
enterprises established to address the
serious erosion of the Catholic Faith in
the last 50 years.
Michael was born in 1961, the year
before the Second Vatican Council
Following a reversion to the Catholic Faith of his childhood after close to twenty years as
a lukewarm Catholic in mortal sin, Michael invested all his savings into St. Michael’s
Media and began producing the TV program, The One True Faith – an hour long program
aimed at helping Catholics better understand the great gift of the Catholic Church.
During the early years of St. Michael’s Media, he studied for and received his STB –
Sacred Theology Baccalaureate – an ecclesiastical post-graduate degree and graduated
Magna Cum Laude.
In 2008 .. he partnered with realcatholictv.com during start-up to expand the reach of St.
Michael’s Media programming via the internet. What initially began as a modest effort
has now grown .. thanks to the blessing of Our Lord and the constant prayers of
thousands of followers .. to a sizable electronic Catholic evangelization effort seen by
going on 20 million viewers.
In 2011 .. Michael was inducted as a Knight into the Royal Order of St. Michael of the
Wing of the Royal House of Portugal .. the ceremony taking place not very far from
Fatima, where Michael consecrated the apostolate’s efforts to the Queen of Heaven and
placed the entire apostolate under her Queenly and maternal protection.
In 2012 .. the name of the website was changed to ChurchMilitant.TV to more accurately
reflect its style and mission .. a bold and muscular presentation of the Catholic Faith.
Michael has been invited to speak at hundreds of gatherings.. many of them international
.. and he carries a message of the need for a stalwart defense and promotion of Catholic
Doctrine and Catholic Truth with him where ever he goes in hopes of reinforcing the
faithful.
