Our family thanks you for your support and your prayers!

God has called our family to be missionaries, after serving at the University of North Texas, Auburn, the University of Oklahoma and Baylor, we are now moving to Denver, CO to serve at the FOCUS headquarters as the Director of Summer Projects. This is a national formation department that oversees summer formation for hundreds of students every year from across all 200+ campuses we serve at. Click below to learn more:
When I was a student at Texas State University, a FOCUS Missionary encountered me on campus and changed my life as he encouraged me to live a life of virtue. He met me where I was at and inspired me through his example that through God’s grace my life could be transformed into something beautiful. Now as a missionary, I strive to share the same message with students on the campuses I have served. Through the witness of love within our family, we hope to share our faith and hope with the students across the country and teach them how to become a gift to the world through living their faith.
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. I’ve been blessed with the most amazing people who have journeyed with me as I serve on campus. We are fully confident that we are able to share the message of Jesus’ love and mercy through the support of our mission partners. We are only able to be present to this generation of Catholic leaders through your prayers and support.
God bless, and thank you for going on this journey with us!
