Where I serve

The LORD has called me and my fiance, Chloe, as well as Joshua and our team director Emily to serve at Central Michigan University! FIRE UP CHIPS!

My Story

I was blessed to have been raised in a faithful home with two loving parents. Like so many, my relationship with the LORD fluctuated as I came of age. However, the LORD was persistent with me. Senior year of high school, He called me to become Catholic. Shortly after, He called me to the seminary. A year later, He called me to step away from seminary formation. He then called me to pursue a relationship with the most joy-filled woman I had ever met. A year later, I asked that woman to marry me. Soon after her yes, He called the two of us to become FOCUS missionaries.

“You called and cried out loud and shattered my deafness. You were radiant and resplendent, you put to flight my blindness. You were fragrant, and I drew in my breath and now pant after you. I tasted you, and I feel but hunger and thirst for you. You touched me, and I am set on fire to attain the peace which is yours.” – St. Augustine

My story is one of being endlessly pursued and loved by the GOD of the universe. I’m not satisfied with simply abiding in that love. I am passionate about helping young, vulnerable souls hear the call of their Father – the call that will finally give their hearts rest.

Your Impact

“Some give by going, some go by giving.” – Mother Theresa

You have the honor to go on mission for eternal souls by joining my monthly support team. I am passionate about this mission, but it is only possible through your generosity.

Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and decay destroy and thieves break in and steal. But store up treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor decay destroys, nor thieves break in and steal. For where your treasure is, there also will your heart be. Matthew 6:19-20.

Our LORD is never outdone in generosity. He will take your gift and multiply it beyond counting.
