Additional Information
I was born and raised catholic. Attended Holy Family School in Decatur from Kindergarten through 8th grade. I was Baptized at St. James in Decatur, but received First Reconciliation, First Holy Communion, and Confirmation at Holy Family. I began my ministry as live-stream coordinator on the 1st Sunday of Advent in 2020. In my first year in this ministry it has helped me to know and love God more deeply. I hope that I can continue to be as Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI said when he was elected Pope; "as a simple, humble laborer in the vineyard of the Lord."
I personally appreciate the work you all do for the mere fact that I strive to do the same in the small ministry I attempt to provide for my parish, the live-streaming of mass. As I have explained to many who have asked me about my motivation, or mission for my ministry:
RY Live-Streaming Mission Statement
"In a world that is slowly and continuously trying to push Christ out of our world, I pray that through my ministry of streaming mass and providing other faith resources on social media and online, that I can help keep him in our world for those who hunger for Christ in their lives to be able to experience him in a way that will not only help them continue to learn the mystery of our faith, but also grow in a deeper relationship with our Lord."
I have said this to so many people it feels like a prayer. I strive daily to minister to my parish going by this mission statement that filled my heart when I began this ministry. For the past year my dream has been getting a job for our Diocese in the department that Andrew Hansen works, and if I am accepted I will serve with the same attitude, dedication, enthusiasm, and work ethic (and more) as I provide for Holy Family, and also in everything else that I do.
