Hey! My name’s Christian. I’m a FOCUS missionary.
The University of Southern Indiana! Let’s go SCREAGLES (Screaming Eagles)!!!
My journey to FOCUS started in the Fall of 2018, my first semester at Ball State University. I joined a group of young men at the Catholic Newman Center led by a magnanimous priest through a program called Exodus 90. This program calls men to a radical return to reality through intense prayer, fasting, and chastity. This group consisted of men from all walks of life, including several FOCUS missionaries, whom I got to know very well. These men and this program were the first time I experienced true intimacy with Jesus Christ. That semester was a spring point for my journey to FOCUS. The Lord continued to call me deeper into relationship with Him and He was (and always is) WORKING.
The Lord continued to work through my first year of mission at the University of Southern Indiana. He guided me through every trial and joy this past year. God greatly blessed my mission at USI by allowing me to enter the lives of the men I encountered on campus and invite them into a relationship with Jesus. The greatest blessing I received this past year was getting married to my beautiful wife, Taylor, on December 3, 2022! We have had the joy of being on mission together this past year and inviting students into our marriage. We get to be a witness to a holy, Christ-centered marriage to the students we meet on campus. One of the most powerful ways we are a witness is our openness to life. Taylor and I are expecting our first baby this August. We are so excited to welcome another life into our family and bring them on mission with us!
I want to invite you into our family and mission too! It is a beautiful opportunity to share this mission with many wonderful people who support me. If you would like to support the mission God has called me to, please contact me and I will let you know how to join on mission!

By building genuine friendships, we meet students on a deeper level.
We teach students how to share the gospel, who in turn teach other students how to pass it on.
