I will be a second-year missionary at the Eastern Washington University campus in Cheney.  Go Eags! I am so excited to meet the students there and grow in true friendship with them, all the while accompanying them on their walk in the Lord.

I am a recent graduate from the University of Idaho where I studied Animal and Veterinary Science with an emphasis on Production.  I studied the ins and outs of raising beef cattle, or “Cowology” as some would like to call it.  It was there at the UI that I got involved with the Catholic Student Center on campus, St. Augustine’s. I led a Bible study and Discipleship for nearly two and a half years before graduating.  It was a transformative time for the women I led and myself.  It was through our relationship that Jesus called these women to a deeper love for Him and openness to His will.  And I can say with great joy that many of them responded! During my time there I grew in love for Christ Jesus and responded to my call to mission.  It was a subtle and clear call I knew was true by the invigorating life I felt when sharing the goodness of the Lord with those around me.

Last year, I served at the University of Montana in Missoula where I cut my teeth on what life is as a full-time missionary. Although I spent only a year on that campus, I learned much, developed incredible friendships, and took the beginning steps with other women towards deeper freedom in Christ. Of course, it was hard to leave Missoula, but there is much in store where Jesus is calling me to now.

Through your generous support, you too are entering into mission with me!  Shoulder to shoulder, we will work together on campus, winning Souls for Christ.  Although our roles are different, you are just as committed to mission as I am as you join in the Great Commission Jesus gave to His disciples and to us to “Go, and make disciples of all nations” (Matthew 28:19).  I am so excited to see how the Lord uses your gifts to save Souls.
