Jon Paul Robles

Jon Paul Robles is an ordained priest and serves as co-pastor for the Sacred Commons Church (Youngstown, OH). He is the director of The Greater Youngstown Community Dialogue On Racism and a coordinator for Mahoning Valley Sojourn to the Past.

As a grad student of Theology & Culture at St. Stephen’s University, he is currently writing his thesis that explores the intersections of the philosophy of Simone Weil with the work of justice and unity embedded within complex social and religious systems.

A grandchild of Mexican Americans who migrated from Texas to the Midwest, an Oklahoma Osage crop duster, and a Steel Magnolia from Kansas, Jon Paul identifies as third-culture and finds that his work is birthed from the convergence of their stories.

He is married to Diana, and together, they have two wonderful children, Jon Luke and Maudie.
