"The Glory of God is man fully alive." - St. Irenaeus.

Since my adolescence, I've had a burning desire to live life to the fullest. In the midst of many triumphs and tragedies, I've come to realize what it means to be fully alive and not just merely existing on this earth. Through the grace of Jesus Christ and His one, holy, catholic, and apostolic church, I'm on the pursuit of knowing and living my faith out in real life in order to serve the Lord and proclaim the gospel to the youth of the world as a youth minister.

In order to do that, formation is needed. The first steps to that formation are completed. I've been accepted into Franciscan University of Steubenville, Ohio. As grateful as I am for being accepted, registered for classes, and being housed by the university, that process alone came with a lot of struggles. From countless rejections by jobs to working full-time for DoorDash to pay rent and bills to paying for car repairs due to my car breaking down in the middle of the road. The journey has been rough.

Which is why I'm reaching out for help. With your gracious help, I'll be able to pay the remaining balance of rent and car repairs, focus on my studies without worry of finances, and sustain myself while working, living, and going to school in Steubenville.

Thank you and God bless!
