After 3 years serving as Link staff in a Muslim country in the Mediterranean, God is calling me back to InterVarsity/USA staffwork - in Utah! I trust that God has uniquely equipped me through my missionary experience to be in ministry in Utah.
Utah is a lot like the country I've been living in. The dominant culture is different from my own. There are a lot of ideological similarities between the two groups, Mormons and Muslims. The prophets, extra scriptures, emphasis on good deeds, and more of a communal instead of individual focus are just a few that I have noticed. It will certainly be an endurance race, not a quick sprint. If anything, the two places have that in common. And both places are spiritually dark. I’m excited about the challenge that lies ahead as I move to work with Mormon students, international students, and also the Christian students that come and find us, too.
