Campus Minister (Peoria IL)

Give a Gift

I was born and raised in East Africa Tanzania. I love God and I am a follower of Jesus Christ. I always love learning more about the Bible because there is a lot to learn from it. I’m always open to learning different languages, and different cultures . I am so honored to be part of IFI family and so glad that I have the opportunity to work with this organization and be able to build friendship with international students from across the globe, many whom are navigating life far from home and family. I know how it feels to be an international student in a foreign country, as I used to be one as well.

My Role

I serve as a campus minister/international staff to international students, helping make the world feel at home right where I am. Through simple acts of love and hospitality, I strive to extend life changing hospitality and friendship to international students and their families out of reverence for Jesus Christ so that God’s love will be extended globally in partnership with spiritually vibrant international students. It’s a joy and honor to create a space where they are seen, valued and introduced to the love of God.
