Semester Highlights

Hey y'all! Thanks so much for all your prayers for us at Loras College. God has really been working in us and the students and we wanted to share with you some of the exciting things that are happening!

• Three bible studies are beginning with members of four different varsity teams on campus
• I have developed friendships with student-athletes by being present at football and soccer practices, as well as spending time with them off the field throughout the week
• I was invited by Coach Schultz to give brief meditations before cross-country meets
• Three student-athletes will attend FOCUS Leadership Summit, Illuminate, in Baltimore during the weekend of January 20-23. They will also have the opportunity to attend the March for Life in Washington D.C. More information on the Summit can be found at http://www.focussummit.org
• Varsity Catholic is hosting a soccer mission trip in St. Lucia at the end of late May. Several student-athletes have already shown interest in the trip.
• Former Anaheim Angel and convert to Catholicism is coming to speak at Loras with the athletes the evening of Wednesday, March 7th about his journey to the faith and the importance of living one's life for Christ on and off the field.
• I have had the privilege of serving the men's and women's soccer teams by selling scarves at several home games and helping out with their fundraiser for the Louverture-Cleary school in Haiti.
