“Arm yourself with prayer rather than a sword; wear humility rather than fine clothes.” – St. Dominic
The Lord has called me to serve at the University of Washington! I will be leading bible studies, mentoring and leading men in discipleship, meeting students on campus, praising the Lord, taking people on adventures and so much more!
I had a deeply impactful encounter with Christ in the Eucharist after my freshman year of high school. I knew that Christ was important, but wouldn’t really know why until my time in college. I went to the land of crimson and blue and waving wheat for my education: The University of Kansas (Rock Chalk!). There, FOCUS missionaries and student leaders on my campus came to me to tell me the amazing news that is the Gospel: I am made for a personal relationship with God, who created us to share in His own blessed life. Many bible studies, discipleship meetings, and time in fellowship and prayer further helped me realize this truth of life.
Upon realizing the good news of Christ, my life has been transformed, and I desire to share this joy with others. Jesus met people where they were at and deeply invested in them. I desire to be like Christ and follow Him in His example. I want to know students, hear their stories, love them, and walk with them to live fully alive in Christ. I am always eager to see what the Lord has in store next!
“All men die, but not all men really live.”
William Wallace
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. This allows me to fully give of myself to those on campus. If you are interested in supporting and joining me on mission, I would love to connect with you and schedule an appointment. I would be honored and blessed to share this mission with you and to go on this great adventure together!
