What does being Catholic mean to you? It means I'm called to something greater. To whom much is given, much is expected. Being Catholic means I must set an example for everyone I encounter. This is very difficult and I often fail. But being part of the Catholic Tradition gives me the strength to continue and keep trying.
Why is your Catholic faith important to you? I am nothing without it. What can be more important than this?
What is your favorite part about St. T's 20-Somethings? I enjoy getting an opportunity to serve and getting to know all the interesting people in the group.
