We encounter God in an intimate relationship through daily prayer, the sacraments and the Scriptures.
Hello! My name is Emma, and I’m a second-year missionary serving the University of Delaware!
After serving my first year on campus at Mount St. Mary’s, I will now be serving the students at the University of Delaware! Go Hens! Please pray for my team and I as we strive to form disciples for Christ!
Placement Day June 2025
I grew up in a Catholic family that fell away from the faith over time, checking the boxes, but never really pursuing a personal relationship with the Lord. By the grace of God, I was loved in a Protestant youth group that kept Christ close to my heart, even without knowing the fullness of Him. Before I began college at Penn State University, I felt the call on my heart, by the grace of my baptism, to return to the Church and seek authentic community centered around Jesus and the Sacraments. I attended Mass on campus, met the Newman Club, and fell in love with the people and the faith.
Since that year, God has continually called me out of myself and more into His heart; growing in divine intimacy, authentic friendships, and the desire to share His love with others. I served intentionally with the Newman Club during my junior and senior years, and after graduating in 2022, continued to invest in the community at Penn State while also volunteering with the campus ministry at Lock Haven University. Jesus has drawn me closer to His heart with every step and every person I have met, and more deeply into trusting his divine providence with every new experience.
Taking all of this to prayer with me at the SEEK24 Conference, God called me to serve with FOCUS! He called me home, into the fullness of His love, and now He desires me to walk that same journey with other young adults.
Your support enables me to be fully available to students on campus, serving them full-time!

I would love to schedule an appointment and get to know 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.
