Hi, I’m Kaylie! I’m a FOCUS missionary!

Where I serve

I am excited to be serving my first year as a missionary at University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire! I am looking forward to what God has in store for me on this campus and can’t wait to explore all that Wisconsin has to offer. Go Blugolds!

My Story

Throughout my life, I have always felt a desire to belong: with my family, with my friends, with my classmates. However, as hard as I tried to fit in and be desired by others, I never found true fulfillment and peace. It wasn’t until I started to build a relationship with Jesus in college that I discovered the belonging I had been searching for all over the world could only be found with God. I had been looking for a heavenly relationship here on Earth, which would always leave me unsatisfied. FOCUS guided me in deepening my intimacy with Jesus during college and encouraged me in answering God’s call to be a missionary myself. 

In a world where many people find themselves lost, lonely, and searching for connection, I want to aid students in finding their true identity as beloved children of God. I am so excited to work with these students and show them the unending love of our Lord through friendship and bible study. In my quest for belonging, God has led me to him and has now sent me forth to guide individuals on the path to our true home of truth, beauty, and goodness found in Jesus Christ. 

Your Impact

In accepting my call as a FOCUS missionary, I have agreed to rely on the spiritual and financial support of mission partners. Reaching souls is not possible without the assistance of generous individuals willing to join the mission. If you are interested in partnering with me, please let me know the best way to contact you so we can further discuss this vocation and your support. I would be honored to share this mission with you! 

As St. Augustine said, “You have made us for yourself, O Lord, and our heart is restless until it rests in you.”
