Jason Jones: Saving The Most Vulnerable.

He was once a pro-life atheist who intentionally set out to end abortion AND destroy the Catholic Church. This is just one reason why Jason Jones is, without a doubt, the most fascinating man Fr. Paul has ever met. 

Film Producer, Author, Activist, Popular Podcast Host, Human Rights Worker. These are just some of the many hats Jason wears. He’s known best for being president of the Human-Rights Education and Relief Organization (H.E.R.O.), known for its two main programs, The Vulnerable People Project and Movie to Movement. 

In 2006, Jones was an Executive Producer of "Bella," which won several film industry awards, most notably the People's Choice Award at the 2006 Toronto International Film Festival.

He is currently in Hawaii, helping the most vulnerable victims of the destruction of Lahaina, Maui, caused by the recent wildfires. Please listen to “Part 2” of this episode, “Hope For Hawaii,” coming very soon.

About the Podcast

A Holy Mess
With His HoliMess Father Paul
Fr. Paul Houlis is, in no way, His Holiness, but he sure is, “His HoliMess.” He knows from personal experience that one’s life can truly be a beautiful, holy, mess.
Are we not all, in some way, “A Holy Mess?” After all, holiness is messy! We live in a messy world, and God entered the depths of its “messiness” and made it “holy”. He can do the same for one’s life!
So tune in, and bring your mess with you. You’ll find out that God doesn’t just clean the mess of one’s life but uses it! He turns our mess into a beautiful message of hope…if we let Him.
Join “His HoliMess” for a clean, but very messy podcast.

Fr. Paul Houlis is a priest of the Archdiocese of Newark, in New Jersey. Before entering the seminary, he pursued a career in stand-up comedy and acting in New York City. His life was flipped upside down shortly after the tragic events of 9/11/2001. Faced with the close reality of death, he starting asking questions about life. He soon found that true life was found in living a life for others, not just for self. "If you get me through this I'll dedicate my life to helping your children," he cried out to GOD. The rest is history.
Fr. Paul desires to use his love for comedy and entertainment to help bring others joy. After all, the Christian person must be a person of joy. For GOD truly is a JOY to the world....even in it's mess.
