Sean Forrest is a thoughtful and engaging Catholic speaker with a deep commitment to making a meaningful impact. He began his career as a successful musician, performing at major nightclubs and resorts, but felt something was missing. In his search for purpose, Sean encountered Christ and left his former life behind to pursue ministry. He started as a youth minister at St. James Church in Stratford, CT, and soon realized a calling to share his story with a broader audience. Taking a leap of faith, he and his wife, Julie, reached out to churches and organizations nationwide, leading to a speaking career that has spanned over two decades.
In 2001, Sean’s heart for service led him to Haiti, where he was profoundly moved by the extreme poverty. This calling inspired the founding of Haiti180, an organization that has since built an orphanage, a school serving over 350 students, elderly homes offering dignity and care, and a state-of-the-art medical facility providing critical healthcare. Sean emphasizes that Haiti180 is more than just infrastructure; it’s a mission rooted in faith, hope, and love.
Sean is also an accomplished musician and author, having produced nine albums and written several books. Despite his achievements, he remains grounded in his belief that God’s grace is at the center of everything he does. He frequently reminds audiences that true fulfillment comes from stepping into God’s calling with courage and trust.
When he’s not speaking or working on the mission, Sean enjoys life in Nashville, TN, with his wife, Julie, and their children.
