“This is no time to be ashamed of the Gospel. It is the time to preach it from the rooftops.” – Pope Saint John Paul II

Where We serve

The Lord has called my husband and I serve at Troy University in Troy, Alabama!! GO TROJANS!!

Our Story

I grew up without faith and never really understood who God was, but everything changed for me through a profound experience with the Eucharist at Mass. It was during this moment that I realized the deep love God has for me, and in 2024, I was baptized, confirmed, and received the Eucharist at the Easter Vigil Mass. My journey of faith really blossomed when I met the FOCUS missionaries at my college. Their unwavering witness of love for Jesus set my heart on fire, and I knew I had to share the Gospel with everyone around me. I felt just like the woman at the well, excited to tell everyone I could that I had met the Messiah.

Now, as a newly married couple, as of May 30, 2025 (feast of Saint Joan of Arc), Cohen and I are honored to serve as FOCUS missionaries together. Inspired by the witness of the married missionaries who impacted our lives in college, we hope to share the love of Christ through the gift of our marriage and our home. It is our desire to bring the Gospel to college students and walk with them in faith, just as others once did for us.

Your Impact

“Go therefore and make disciples of all nations” Matthew 28:19

In saying “yes” to being a FOCUS missionary I agree to help fulfill Jesus’ great commission and I cannot do it alone. As a FOCUS missionary I made the decision to rely on the spiritual and financial support of mission partners. If you feel called by the Lord to be a part of this mission, I would be blessed to have you join my team!
