Why I am a Youth Minister
|
| |
Because God told
me to. He spoke so loudly in my heart and soul, I couldn't
ignore it. I volunteered with St Marks for four years, then
took the step into full time ministry in July 2001. I can't
imagine doing anything else; this job may be difficult at
times, but it is such a blessing to be able to work with teens
and help lead them to a deeper relationship with Christ. |
About Me
|
| |
God is good...all the time...all
the time...God is good. He really is. I consider myself quite
blessed with what life has shown me! I've got a wonderful
family, amazing friends, and a fabulous job. I've been so
lucky in the ministry experiences I've been able to have,
both as a teen and as an adult. Getting involved in ministry
has been such a source of blessing in my life--from the very
first Mass at Workcamp when I was a teen, to a million retreats
and alternative Spring Breaks in college, to CLCs, teen Masses,
and Core Teams as a volunteer post-college, to rallies, ski
trips, spiritual bootcamp, weekly meetings, random outings
and World Youth Day as a full time youth minister. I've met
incredible people, had amazing prayer experiences, seen such
holiness, been so humbled, and learned so much. God never
ceases to amaze me with the way He shines through such experiences.
