As a retreat director at the Tyme Out, I have been fortunate to work with many youth from a wide variety of backgrounds and ages. I enjoy coming to work and learning from and growing with the youth that we serve. I also have the pleasure to work in a Christian environment that supports my personal endeavors and missions. For four years, one of my missions has been working on the island of St. Lucia, located in the West Indies. With the Tyme Out staff supporting my mission, this October, I have been blessed with teh opportunity for the fifth time to travel to the island to continue my work. I feel incredibly fortunate that my work environment is encouraging my mission and allowing me to take time off to pursue my passion.
When I am in St. Lucia, I work closely with a Catholic youth group known as the Youth on Fire. The group is comprised of approximately 100 members between the ages of 13-25. While I am there for my two week mission trip, I will have the chance to actually lead two Tyme out retreats. I will be leading an all day relationship retreat and a night seminar on leadership. I am looking forward to bringing our resourses down to the Caribbean and to take the Tyme Out to an international level. I am looking forward to working with the group in many capacities as well as spending time at an the Holy Family Children's Home (an orphanage).
