Why I became an SPO Missionary

I am becoming an SPO missionary because I want to walk alongside college students, to show them through the love of Jesus, their immeasurable worth in the eyes of the Father. This is exactly what my missionaries did for me! College students are often juggling a million things, feeling a little lost in the shuffle, and sometimes just plain lonely. I want to be that friendly face who reminds them, "Hey, you're awesome, and God thinks so too!" I want to bring Jesus’ joy to campus, walking with students through the good times and the not-so-good, and showing them that true belonging isn't found in chasing trends, but in a relationship with the One who made them.

“Remember not the former things, nor consider the things of old. Behold, I am doing a new thing; now it springs forth, do you not perceive it? I will make a way in the wilderness and rivers in the desert." - Isaiah 43:18-19 "
