Miguel Romero

Chaplain Ellis Park and Kentucky Downs

Miguel Angel Romero, known fondly by friends as "Brother Miguel" and affectionately nicknamed "Don Miguel," serves as the Chaplain of Ellis Park. Originally hailing from Mexico, Miguel now calls Owensboro, Kentucky, his home.

Beyond his ministry, Miguel enjoys watching soccer and indulging in his favorite cuisine: Mexican ceviche and seafood. A former construction worker, he still impresses those around him with his hidden talent for fixing cars. And when he decides to treat himself, you’ll likely find him shopping for a new pair of cowboy boots.

Miguel’s heart is filled with gratitude for the KRTC supporters who make his work possible, and he’s honored to partner with them in this amazing ministry.
