- Why I am a Youth Minister
- Because I truly believe this is the life that God has called me to. I love the Church and I love Christ’s youth. I am the product of a youth ministry program that changed my life and helped me to be a solid Catholic. I want to give the good news to teens everywhere. I know that our youth will come to change the world and I truly believe in them.
- About Me
- I’m LOVE my job. I love Jesus and I love making people laugh. I have a BA in Interdisciplinary Studies from Christopher Newport University and my MA in Theology and Christian Ministry from Franciscan University of Steubenville. I’m one of 5 children, but the only girl in my family. Because I’m the only girl, I’m pretty good at being the princess, to which my brothers oblige. I can be found guzzling water, making up youth ministry games or singing badly at the top of my lungs. I’m pretty much the loudest person you’ll meet ever!
