The Ministry of Exorcisms in the Roman Catholic Tradition of the 21st Century

This talk was given at Colorado State University in the Grand Ballroom of the Lory Student Center.

Fr. Gary Thomas is a Vatican-certified, practicing exorcist. He was raised in San Francisco and is a long-time pastor in the Diocese of San Jose. In 2005, he was selected by his Bishop to attend a Vatican-sponsored course on exorcisms. The Rite: The Making of a Modern Exorcist, (Doubleday, 2009), by journalist Matt Baglio describes his training under a master exorcist in Rome, and also gives readers an inside look of the Church’s use of the rite of exorcism, and its role in contemporary life.
