We encounter God in an intimate relationship through daily prayer, the sacraments and the Scriptures.
After spending 2 years at the University of Northern Colorado. I then had the opportunity to invest and walk with the men at Kansas State University in Manhattan, Kansas. After an unexpected series of events I heard the voice of the Lord beckon me away from the heartland and into the desert. Going into my 6th Year in FOCUS the Lord is sending me to the University of Arizona in Tuscon, AZ! I am excited combine experiences from a small campus in the west, and one of the biggest Newman Centers in the country to this new location which is one of the largest campuses in the country, yet very new to focus. I will vigorously continue my work of sharing the Gospel with men in their most transformative period of their lives, and I look forward to calling men closer to Christ whether they are a freshman who has never stepped foot into a church or a senior preparing to launch himself into lifelong discipleship in this new frontier.
My testimony isn’t a new one. I grew up Catholic in a very faithful family but started to lose the faith in college. Very shortly after I graduated I went on a retreat immediately followed by FOCUS’ Student Leadership Summit which sparked my radical devotion to Our Lord. I’ve been called to mission since then and joining FOCUS was an absolute no brainer. My life has been transformed by Christ through His sacraments and doing this mission and I want nothing more than to invite into the life-changing message of the Gospel.
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. And I love the opportunity this gives them to be actively apart of the mission. I’ve been blessed with the most amazing people who have journeyed with me as I serve on campus. 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.
