Why I became an SPO Missionary

I became a Missionary with SPO because it was attractive to see people my age living out their lives solely for the Lord. When I got to college, I didn’t know what being faithful would look like as someone who was living independently for the first time. When I encountered the Missionaries on my campus, I was pursued with love and care and they allowed me to feel like I was a part of something special. It was through the genuine relationships that I had formed within community that I came to desire a genuine relationship with the Lord.
