My Story
I was raised in a Catholic family and surrounded by ministry, but I often felt lukewarm in my faith and envious of others’ powerful conversion stories. In the summer of 2023, I volunteered at Youth Arise International in Fatima, expecting just a fun trip, but God completely transformed my heart. Through prayer, community, and a powerful moment during a laying on of hands, I encountered Jesus like never before and heard His call to stop living divided. I left Fatima on fire for my faith, filled with peace and purpose, and with a clear call to mission through CCO. Since then, my life has radically changed and God is now at the center of everything, and I live boldly for Him.
My Mission
I am currently serving as a Campus Missionary at Saint Mary’s University in Halifax. As a recent graduate, I deeply resonate with the struggles students face when their lives aren’t rooted in the firm foundation of God. I know firsthand how challenging university life can be without the peace and purpose that only Christ can provide. Now, I have the privilege of walking alongside students, sharing the transformative love of Jesus, and inviting them into a life-changing relationship with Him. My mission is to help them encounter the same peace and purpose I’ve found and build their lives on the rock-solid foundation of faith.
