Pat Gohn is vibrant, genuine, and captivating! Pat delivered a deeply spiritual retreat to 64 women at our military chapel and we all loved her! Her message, inspired by her new book, Blessed, Beautiful, and Bodacious: Celebrating the Gift of Catholic Womanhood, was profoundly inspiring and motivating. Pat is truly a bodacious woman who lovingly shares her beautiful gifts, and insightfully reminds us how we are so uniquely blessed!  - Nancy Loney and Vera Williams, Military Council of Catholic Women, Carlisle Barracks Chapel, PA 

“Pat Gohn is a speaker par excellence – insightful, inspirational, and thought-provoking.  Her talks at our Catholic Writers retreat encouraged all present to realize the importance of a writer’s vocation and her presentation at our Catholic Writers Conference on new media opened our eyes to our role in the New Evangelization.  Pat is a wealth of wisdom to everyone she encounters.” - Ann Margaret Lewis, President, Catholic Writers Guild, Indianapolis, IN

“Pat Gohn is an engaging, dynamic and enthusiastic presenter.  She is a natural teacher who enjoys connecting with her audience.  Her lively, committed faith clearly informs her life and her message.  Her ability to promote good conversation, discussion, and questions is strong and effective.  She awakens that thirst to learn more.” - Fr. Peter Gori, OSA, Pastor, St. Augustine Church, Andover, MA

“Pat was spectacular as a presenter at our Catholic Writers of Long Island Conference — clearly both gifted and well-prepared.  She wowed us all.  She has great appeal as a human being, and laser insights that connect the spiritual with the practical and personal aspects of our work as writers, and our discernment process concerning where and how to use our gifts for the Kingdom.  Not to mention she is HILARIOUS. And on top of doing a major presentation to a packed house of 150 people, who she held in the palm of her hand, she was simultaneously recording all of the talks for us.  She is now producing and editing the recordins for resale for our organization.  Pat Gohn should really be out there doing lots of Catholic conferences.” - Lisa Mladinich, President, Catholic Writers of Long Island, NY

“I got to know Pat by working closely with her on the 2010 and 2011 “Catholic New Media Celebrations.”  The CNMC is an international conference, held each year, to inform and build community among those using new forms of media in the Roman Catholic Church.  Pat’s talent as a speaker was evident in the two talks she gave at the CNMC in 2011.”  -Steve Nelson, Executive Director, SQPN.com

“Pat Gohn was recommended as a speaker for our annual Secretaries Appreciation Day.  We had told Pat the audience she would be speaking to and that we wanted to affirm their ministry in our Diocese.  Pat was wonderful! Pat was very organized and kept to her allotted time.  She interjected a bit of humor into her talk as well as a deep spirituality.  She touched and affirmed every woman who was present that morning.  We hope Pat will be able to join the Diocese of Worcester, MA on many other occasions.”- Anne Ancona, President, Commissions for Women, Diocese of Worcester, MA

“Pat’s talk on our Blessed Mother Mary was well received by all in attendance.  She was articulate, entertaining, and full of great information encompassing the best of our Catholic Tradition and the wisdom of the saints.  I highly recommend Pat as a speaker for any parish event.  Her teaching si sound and presented in a way that engages and holds the attention of any audience.” - Joy Davis, Director of Religious Education, St. Bernard/St. Margaret Mary Parishes, Keene, NH
