Years with Vagabond: 3

I started working for Vagabond Missions because I have worked in professional youth ministry since 2007 and saw a huge gap the Catholic Church had in serving teens on the margins. I was training youth ministers to serve all teens and realizing it wasn’t happening. There were no systems set up to do it well. Pope Francis was telling youth leaders to go out and serve teens. Vagabond Missions was equipped to answer that call, and I knew my heart was calling me to be on mission. I want ALL teens to have an opportunity to know Christ!
