Ana Maria Garcia

Ana María García is a Catholic lay evangelist. For over 30 years, she has witnessed to the healing power of God’s love and mercy as a team member of Good News International, a lay ministry that has carried the Gospel to parishes all over this country, as well as South America and Europe, and has continued to answer the Lord’s call with a resounding and joyous, YES!

Ana María has spoken throughout New Jersey and New York at Retreats, Communion Breakfasts, Women’s Groups, Prayer Meetings, Workshops, and Life in the Spirit Seminars, in addition to Parish Missions conducted in English and Spanish. She has given witness at the Catholic Tent Revival of New Jersey, the New Jersey Catholic Charismatic Conference, and ecumenical organizations, and has also appeared on Religion and Ethics Newsweekly on PBS. 

She is the mother of three children, grandmother of eight, and a parishioner for 33 years at the Church of St. Luke in Toms River, where she and her husband served as coordinators of the parish Evangelization Team, bible studies, and Renew 2000. She also served on the RCIA formation team and is currently a Lector and Extraordinary Minister of the Eucharist.

Most recently, Ana María began Our Lady’s Power of Prayer Group at St. Luke in obedience to the May 25, 2024, request of Our Lady of Medjugorje, who asked: “Little children, create prayer groups in order to encourage each other to the good and grow in joy.”
