My priest Fr. Tan Creti really got me interested in it. During one of my confirmation classes he read from different books in greek, latin, and hebrew, and that really sparked me so I started studying latin. He also really encouraged me to get involved with Tri-Faith here in Omaha.

I did a mission trip to Homer Alaska to help build a prayer labrinth and do general clean up to a small church out there. Its different than this in that it has the aspect of different faiths and its closer to home. While I really enjoyed my time working in Alaska, I think this will have a great effect on me because its so close to home. Since we are working where we live I feel that I have already become more conscience of the problems facing Omahans.
