About Mike

Finding Adam Finding Eve

Hey there. I’m Mike Palitto—software engineer, ministry co-founder, and the guy who built Game of Love.

Here’s my story: I failed at marriage in my twenties. I didn’t know myself, didn’t understand what love required, and didn’t put God at the center. After my divorce, I spent years doing the hard work—therapy, spiritual direction, understanding my wounds, and learning what it means to love like Christ.

Then God brought Katie into my life. Two broken people, healed by grace, building something beautiful together.

For over fifteen years, Katie and I have mentored Catholic singles and couples through Finding Adam Finding Eve. We’ve walked alongside hundreds of people—smart, faithful, good-hearted people doing “all the right things” but still struggling.

What I’ve learned: most people don’t need another dating app. They need formation and most of all they need to know God loves them no matter what. What He has instore for each one of us if we trust Him is beyond our imagination.

That’s why I built Game of Love from the ground up—every line of code, every assessment, every feature. It’s fifteen years of ministry wisdom, Catholic teaching, and proven psychology woven into tools that actually work.

I’m a technology architect with decades of experience building solutions, but my real passion is using technology to serve the Kingdom. Katie and I live in Kansas City with our five kids. We’re parishioners at Our Lady of Good Counsel.

Game of Love isn’t meant to replace real relationships or the sacraments. It’s a tool to help you prepare for them.

God’s got a plan for your love story. Let’s help you get ready for it.
