And He said to them, “Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men.”

Where I serve

I will be serving on the Missouri University of Science and Technology campus next year with my team, spreading the Gospel while finishing my undergraduate Computer Engineering degree.

My Story

God has a funny way of working in our lives, and my story is no exception. I was raised Catholic but drifted away from the faith by my teenage years. My time in high school and college was filled with chasing awards in academics and athletics, and my faith was merely an afterthought. No matter what I accomplished, however, I still felt unfulfilled, unhappy, and uncertain about my life.

Everything began to change during my sophomore year of college. Through a series of timely encounters, authentic relationships, and an invitation from a FOCUS missionary, I came face to face with the person of Jesus Christ. That simple “yes” changed everything. Through that relationship, I came to know Christ in all of His glory. I dived deeper into my faith, and I began to find fulfillment in His love and care.

In college, we are told to chase whatever brings us success or pleasure. But the truth of the Gospel is far greater: only Jesus can satisfy the deepest longings of our hearts.

Today, I have the joy of serving as a FOCUS missionary, walking alongside other college students, extending the same invitation and sharing the same truth that changed my life: that Jesus Christ deeply desires to know them, love them, and lead them into the fullness of life.

Your Impact

When I answered the call to join FOCUS, I also chose to rely on the spiritual and financial support of mission partners. As Christians, we are called to share the Gospel, and I have been given the incredible privilege of inviting others to join me in that mission. If you are interested in becoming a partner, please contact me at (573) 821-9600 or [email protected] and let me know the best way to reach you. I would be honored to have your support and to share this mission with you!
