“Preach the Gospel at all times; when necessary, use words,” – Saint Francis of Assisi

My Story

I first encountered Jesus Christ in the second half of my sophomore year…. at a frat party. I heard a gentle voice say to me during the party “There is more to life than this”. I realized this “more to life” can be found in only one thing, Jesus. I was caught in worldly desires and Christ had met me where I was. The weekend following the party, I went to my first confession in about a decade. This was the moment I gave my life to Christ. After this, I became more than well acquainted with Campus Ministry and the FOCUS missionaries at Seton Hall University. Throughout 2025, God led me on a journey that revealed he wanted me to be a FOCUS missionary, all I did was say yes.
