At the U of A since:  July 2007

Why I'm a Chaplain at the U of A:  I believe God loves the university and God calls people to the university.  I’m a chaplain because of my desire to enable people to discern this call and to empower them to live it out on the university campus.

Current Focus at the U of A:  Christian Reformed campus ministry is rooted in the confession that all truth is in Christ “in whom are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge” (Col. 2:3). At the U of A we seek to challenge people to grow in wisdom, be encouraged in love, and to fulfill Christ’s mission in the university and the world.
