Peer MinisterErica is a sophomore from Comstock Park, MI, studying nursing.
She became involved in campus ministry because she loves the Catholic community she gets to be a part of. Everyone is so nice and kind, and you can always count on them to be there for you and push you to grow in your faith.
Erica’s favorite part about being a Peer Minister is getting to set up for mass and plan the adoration nights. It’s such a unique experience she couldn’t get anywhere else, and it is such an honor to help prepare for worship.
Her favorite saint is Saint Pope John Paul II because of a story she heard about him a year ago: When he went out on tours or had to walk to get somewhere, his “assistants” had to make sure their path didn’t come across any churches because if they did pass one, JPII would say, “Chapel?” and go inside and spend hours upon hours with Jesus. Erica strives to have a faith as strong as JPII, so strong that she wants to spend any chance she can with Jesus.
Fun fact about Erica: She absolutely loves green beans, and has many cans in her room so whenever she gets hungry she can heat them up and have a delicious snack.
