For over 14 years, Fr. Farao has served as the Catholic Chaplain at California Men's Colony, a state prison in San Luis Obispo that houses 4,000 men. Renowned for his deep knowledge and spiritual insight into the demonic, he is dedicated to clarifying and demystifying the teachings of the Catholic Church.
