We encounter God in an intimate relationship through daily prayer, the sacraments and the Scriptures.
I’m a first-year FOCUS missionary!
“[Our] mission, today more than ever, to teach men the truth about themselves, about their end, their destiny, and to show faithful souls the unspeakable riches of the love of Christ.”
-Pope St. John Paul II
Jesus has called me to serve college students at the University of Rhode Island! It is an incredible privilege to be called to a life of mission, and invite college students deeper into the love of Jesus Christ.
Brought up Catholic with a loving family and a great foundation, I still found myself at arms-length from truly embracing my faith. I didn t see faith as a means of finding joy and happiness, and sought it elsewhere. All of that began to change when I met two friends, Pat and Wyatt, my freshman year of college. Through their witness of true faith and a real desire to know Jesus Christ, God began a new work in my heart. By His grace, I began the journey to a deeper faith, love, and hope in Jesus Christ and His church! Now He has invited me to step into the life of college students, to bring them this joy and invite them to embrace the life-changing Gospel that they were made for. In the words of St. John Paul II, It is Jesus that you seek when you dream of happiness; He is waiting for you when nothing else you find satisfies you.
When I answered the call to join FOCUS, I made the decision to rely on the spiritual and financial support of mission partners to help me through this mission. It would be a blessing to have you as a partner in fulfilling Jesus’ great commission, through your prayer and financial support! If you are interested in partnering with me, please let me know of the best way to reach you and I will schedule an appointment. I’d be honored to share this mission with you.

By building genuine friendships, we meet students on a deeper level.
We teach students how to share the gospel, who in turn teach other students how to pass it on.
