Goals:
After completing my studies and becoming closer to our Lord, through those studies. I
believe that the Lord is calling me to serve Him not only at my Parish but to also serve
Him as a Pastoral Minister in your type of setting. Given a chance, I believe that I will be
able to give spiritual comfort to those who may be ill and to their families, who may be at
a crossroad in their lives.
I have enjoyed ministering at Angela House Halfway House, I have been able to bring
spiritual guidance and hope to the women who are reside there, I know the Lord has
called me to serve. I hope to become part of your staff so I may continue to minister to
those in need.
