We encounter God in an intimate relationship through daily prayer, the sacraments and the Scriptures.
God has called me to serve the students at Benedictine College! You’ll usually find me at most of the events on campus, playing spikeball, or hanging out with students in the rec.
I was raised in a Catholic family and went to Catholic school for 12 years. Despite being in religion and theology classes for all those years, I never understood the true meaning of my faith and the importance of having a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. After graduating High School I abandoned my faith and pursued happiness where the world told me I would find it. This left me more isolated and unhappy than i had ever been before.
Through an encounter with Jesus in the Eucharist at SEEK, I heard Him calling me to serve Him and His Church as a FOCUS missionary. Jesus humbled himself, took on our humanity, and invested deeply in His disciples; an inspiring example of what it means to serve students on campus and lead them to Christ.
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.I’ve been blessed with the most amazing people who are journeying with me as I serve on campus. St. Theresa of Calcutta said, “Some give by going and some go by giving; without both, there is no mission.” 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.
