Campus staff, bellarmine university

When I started college at University of Louisville in 2018, I had just become a Christian. God had used the summer prior to reveal my sin and my need for Jesus to save me from my sin. As a new believer, I knew I needed Christian community and to attend church, so I immediately sought this out. It was during my sophomore year when I began to understand the centrality of the good news of Jesus in my life.

As I continued to receive discipleship from Campus Outreach, God began to grow my desire to share my faith with others. During this time I was able to walk alongside faithful men and women who were sharing their faith on the college campus and lives were being changed by the Gospel. I realized the necessity for others to hear this good news that I had received, and felt confident in the calling on my life to proclaim this good news.

Proclaiming the Gospel on the college campus is a great joy in my life, and I am so thankful to be able to labor for the gospel at Bellarmine University. I am excited to share with students the good news of Jesus, establish them in their faith, equip them to share the good news, and send them into the world for God's glory.
