William Patrick

“I give you a new commandment: love one another. As I have loved you, so you also should love one another. This is how all will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.”

John 13: 34-35

My Story

As many young people today, I grew up Catholic without truly knowing what it means. Coming to college, I got involved in my local Catholic college community where I met my first FOCUS missionary. He was able to walk with me and teach me about the faith all while personally investing in me through an authentic friendship. I continued to say yes to his continued asks, to attending bible studies and discipleship, to going to seek and a mission trip, and finally to leading my own bible study. My relationship with Jesus is stronger than it has ever been and I love him so much. He’s changed my life and I now know that other men are yearning for Him. Now I have the opportunity to lead others to Him. Will you help me?

Your Impact

Supporting me in this particular way is not just a financial transaction. Together we can truly impact the lives of those I encounter on campus by inviting them into a relationship with Christ. There is a growing scarcity of men in this world that needs our masculinity. Your yes to supporting me will allow me to grow in authentic friendship with students, and see them come alive as they become the men God is calling them to be!
