Diego Giovanni Ravelli was born on 1 November 1965 in Lazzate. He was ordained a priest for the Public Clerical Association Priests of Jesus Crucified in 1991 and then incardinated in the diocese of Velletri-Segni.
In 2000 he obtained a diploma in pedagogical methodology from the Faculty of Educational Sciences at the Salesian Pontifical University in Rome. He earned a doctorate in sacred liturgy at the Liturgical Institute of the Pontifical Athenaeum of Saint Anselm in 2010.
