HAPPY NEW YEAR!

HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!! I AM SO EXCITED AND GRATEFUL TO START OFF THE YEAR WITH YOU ALL, I HOPE YOU ALL HAD A VERY GREAT HOLIDAY SEASON.


At our last Richland Focus worship night I got to share about what it means that Jesus came to us as a defenseless, helpless child (as opposed to a strong capable man that didn't have any needs). We also spent some time worshipping and reflecting on Jesus, which is always needed.

Our Christmas party was a great time! The students were excited to share & celebrate what God has done all semester long. I am so encouraged by this group of young adults that have been showing up consistently all semester. I'm excited for what spring 2022 holds for us.


Over the break I got to spend a lot more quality time with family and friends, which was really restful and needed. I traveled to Wisconsin for Christmas (where my family mostly is) and got to see my grandparents and a Packer game in Lambeau Field which was really fun! I hope you enjoy the pics!


As always, thank you so much for believing in our mission to love college students. This has been a peaceful time of rest for me and I am so encouraged to have your support going into the next semester. Thank you!


I hope that the rest of 2021 is restful and purposeful for you all. These years continue to fly by - my prayer for us (and myself) is that we are present & available for what God is doing in our hearts :)


Prayer Requests:

  1.     Wintercamp is almost here (this weekend) and most of our Richland Focus students are coming, which is super exciting! Please be praying that everyone can stay healthy and we won't have to be worried about Covid and that wintercamp would be an awesome experience for our students to grow in their faith for God to move in their hearts.

  2. We have a lot of cool events, sermons, worship activities, etc. we are planning for the semester, so please pray that the Spirit would work through us as we plan and strategize how best to guide our ministry and make disciples. 

Thank you!

       Hey there! I hope you've had a great month!       Here's a look into what I've been up to and all the exciting things going on in our Focus community at Richland.      But before that I just want to say  thank you so much  for investing in the lives of college students and partnering with me in ministry this year! You are such a blessing to me as I literally couldn't be on campus without you backing me. I'm very grateful for you and for your investment into our little community. Thank you! Also, as of this week, School is officially out until Spring semester! For the next few weeks I'll be able to fill my time with more casual hangouts with students, sending Christmas cards, and taking some vacation time.       Here's what I've been up to!          This was taken at one of our weekly campus connect times where we hosted volleyball on campus (everyone really loves when we...

Hey there!  Here's my summer newsletter! I wanted to give you a better insight into the campus I'll be serving this next year and how you can be praying for me and the students that will be walking through the doors come August 23rd, since that's been my focus lately anyway.  Also, for those of you who have recently joined my ministry support team (or if you are continuing on since last year) -  Thank you so much for investing in the lives of college students and partnering with me in ministry for the next year! You are such a blessing to me as I literally couldn't be on campus without you backing me. I'm very grateful for your investment and I pray that God would work powerfully through our ministry to introduce many students to Jesus and make disciples out of the students who have already met Him. (from left to right: Sandra, Connor, Claire, Sirak, me!)     This is our Richland team for the year (except Connor will mostly be helping plant a ministry at anoth...
