Our family is excited to be going from the desert of Phoenix, Arizona to the wet forests of Bellingham, Washington! We will be joining a solid team of three other missionaries, and from what they tell us we are going into true mission territory to live the Gospel to those who have never witnessed the goodness of Christ before in their lives.

Our story: Both Allison and I were raised in Catholic families, but it wasn’t until high school when we both really claimed the Catholic faith as our own. We encountered the Lord in adoration where He revealed His Love that was the yearning of our hearts. We followed this Love to college where Allison studied Theology and I entered seminary to become a priest. His Love for each of us that we first encountered so long ago is the foundation of our love in marriage, and ultimately was the reason for our paths to cross in college.

We have been happily married for 3 years, and we share our love with one baby in heaven, Seraphim, one almost 2 year old on earth, Anastasia, and one in the womb (Coming Oct. 2025). Our love for God and His church has led us to serve in youth ministry, religious education, church coffee shops, OCIA, and homeless outreach. It was in the beginning of the Jubilee Year of Hope that the Holy Spirit began to probe our hearts to discern missionary life. We prayed for clarity on how this would be possible in our current situation, and at SEEK 2025 all of our questions about family missionary life were answered. We knew that because the Lord was so diligent in answering our prayers, that we should be diligent in giving Him our hearts and our Yes.

A few months later we found ourselves at training in Lincoln, Nebraska on placement day excited to hear that the Lord is sending us to Western Washington University in Bellingham, Washington to bring His love to His children the same way that we were able to receive so long ago.

We are overjoyed at the Holy Spirit’s call, and are fully committed to this mission. We hope to bring you along with us as we embark on this crusade for Christ’s love in the little city of Bellingham.

Glory to Jesus Christ! Glory to Him forever!

The scripture verse at the top has been our constant prayer throughout our relationship. We are asking you to join us in that prayer. By joining on mission, you will be providing the means for that love to flow out to the students through your prayers and financial support. It is only with your support, that we will be able to fulfill this mission.

We would be honored to share in this mission with you, to spread the love of the Gospel.
