Jesus said, “I came to cast fire upon the earth; and would that it were already kindled” (Lk. 12:49).

My Story

After studying English and Sacred Choral music at Hillsdale College, the Lord called me to serve his Church as a campus missionary. The Holy Spirit inspired this through service during college:

I served as a “student disciple” within Focus, leading Bible studies and Catholic formation in dorms. As a junior and senior, I spearheaded the first “Ethos” National chapter at Hillsdale, a small-group program designed to help men fight sexual sin. During the summers away from college, I served as a Counselor at Camps Kahdalea and Chosatonga, leading young men to encounter the Lord in the Blue Ridge Mountains of North Carolina. Each of these experiences spurred me to full-time mission work with Focus.

The Lord now calls me to participate in his Great Commission, to “make disciples of all nations” (Mt. 28:19).

Your Impact

By accepting this mission, I entrust all financial needs into the hands of the Lord, and by extension you, my mission partners. With your generous support, college students will hear the good news: the joy of life in Jesus Christ.

Please text or call me: 225-999-3621. I would be delighted to hear your story, to walk in prayer, and to join in Christ’s mission with you.
