‘I have set you to be a light for the Gentiles,
that you may bring salvation to the uttermost parts of the earth.’”

Where I serve

I am beyond blessed to be in Boulder CO serving at the University of Colorado! Sko Buffs!!

My Story

My name is Elizabeth, but many call me Wizzit!

I was born and raised in Spokane WA, but decided to head east to Carroll College in Helena MT, a decision that would drastically change my life. I have been Catholic my entire life, but it wasn’t until my junior year of college that I experienced the immense beauty that the Church holds, and the absolute JOY that comes from being in relationship with the Lord and living out the faith.

The turning point in my life came from the deep and intentional investment a FOCUS missionary put into me when I was distant from the faith, and in a spot of hopelessness. She not only lived her own life confidently centered around Christ, but also invited me to do the same as well. Being able to see who I was before and after meeting that missionary made me think, “wait, I want to be able to help others to find this joy too”! Coming into this role as a missionary, I truly want to assist those college students who are in the same spot I was in, and be able to walk with them in their faith to draw deeper meaning from their lives, and ultimately help them to live JOYFULLY!

Your Impact

In saying yes to serve as a focus missionary, I get the honor of inviting others to join me on mission as well. I have been sent to reach the students at the University of Colorado Boulder, but rely on the generosity of donors like you to supply the spiritual and financial support necessary to do so. If you are interested in partnering with me, please let me know the best way to reach you, and I would love to schedule an appointment. It would be an absolute honor and blessing to be able to share this mission with you!
