Invite Tom to Speak

Following 25 years as an award-winning corporate advertising executive, Tom Peterson’s life would radically change forever, after receiving a transforming Spiritual conversion while on a Catholic men’s retreat.  Soon afterward, he founded VirtueMedia (pro-life) and CatholicsComeHome.org.

In the first six years, Catholics Come Home® has aired Catholic evangelization commercials in 38 dioceses and nationally, helping lead a half million souls home to the Catholic Church.

In 2011 Catholics Come Home evangomercialsTM were the first to air nationally on top TV networks like CBS and NBC, reaching 125 million viewers in every city across the U S.

In January 2014, Catholics Come Home aired an evangomercial in all the major College Football bowl games, featuring legendary coach Lou Holtz, promoting the goal of heaven, and inviting viewers to come home to the Catholic faith.

Recently, Tom began to host a new television series, premiering worldwide in prime time on EWTN on Thursday and Sunday nights.  The show is called Catholics Come Home, and inspires Catholics to share their faith.

In the past decade, Tom has presented to the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops, Australian Media Conference and Australian Bishops Conference, and at various worldwide conferences and Pontifical Councils at the Vatican.  Tom and his apostolates have been featured in nearly three hundred media venues worldwide, including multiple appearances on Fox News and EWTN.

Peterson’s second apostolate, VirtueMedia.org, creates and airs sanctity of life commercials helping as many as 22,000 abortion vulnerable women each month their ads air on MTV, BET, E! and VH1.  Their prolife apostolate features multiple websites such as www.BlackDignity.org, www.PregnancyLine.org, www.HealingAfter.org and others promoting the sanctity of life.

Their interactive website and TV ads of www.EncouragePriests.org are designed to offer spiritual support for our priests, seminarians, bishops and our Holy Father.

Tom served as Vice Chairman of the Legatus International Board of Governors and is active is his local Atlanta Chapter. He encourages others to seek God’s plan for their lives, to help change our world for the better. His new book entitled “Catholics, Come Home” was recently published by Random House.

“Your talk was spectacular!!! Five-star! Tom, Christ Our Life Conference was blessed and honored to have you on the Wells Fargo stage, with c. 8,000 attending! Everywhere I go I hear people singing your praises – at daily Mass, at the gym, in my (very large) scripture study, among my family and friends. People love your stories, your humor and of course, your faith; the “two by four” expression has already found its way into our vernacular.”

Marilyn Lane, Iowa


“Your talk really struck a chord. Amazing standing-room-only crowd (600+)…our largest ever for a non-Cardinal night…and I believe our first ever standing ovation (in 13 years!). There is such a hunger for the Faith among our young adults, and your living example is such an inspiration to us all. Please keep calling us all home…and inspire us to call others home. Thank you, thank you, and thank you again.”

Michael Newhouse, Archdiocese of Houston, Café Catolica


“Outstanding, challenging, thought provoking, and inspiring. World class… a hard act to follow.”

Reg Konrade, Diocese of Salina KS
