Gabe Johner

Hi! I am a Whatcom Community college student going into their Physical Therapy Assistant program. Throughout my life God has revealed His abundant grace to me and I strive to share that with those around me. I have lived all over the country and from that have a love of meeting new people! In my free time I enjoy spending time in nature, listening to music, and staying physically active in any way.

Jerry Chavez 

Hello Hello, my name is Jerry Chavez! I am a Second Year here at Western. Currently undeclared, but planning to major in Engineering with a possible minor in Leadership. Some hobbies of mine include working out, skateboarding, just hanging out and trying new things or learning more about my faith. God has brought me so much happiness, peace, and hope in my life and I want to spread his word so that others can experience the same! 

Ryan Vanden Bos

Hello, my name is Ryan! I joined the Church this last Easter and this community was an integral part of my coming into the Church. I want to pour back into guys looking for more, and to point them to someone more, Jesus Christ. I enjoy reading books, playing cards, and talking about all things Catholic. Christus Vincit.

Michael Petris

Born in England, Michael enjoys playing real football, also known as soccer, camping, hiking, and collecting books. He studies Management Information Systems at WWU, and hopes to become a football coach and a data scientist. Michael has been blessed with multiple friendships at Western that have helped him grow in his relationship with God. He's excited for this year to start, to grow in community, graduate, and grow in his relationship with the Lord. 

Monique Berg

Hi friends! My name is Monique, and I am a second-year graduate student studying chemistry here at WWU. The Black Hills of South Dakota are my home, and it was there that I gained a love for the outdoors. I found a greater love for the outdoors here, but more importantly, I found a greater love for Jesus. Loving is truly what our hearts were made for, created by Love Himself, so let’s do it! I am incredibly honored to have the privilege of getting to know you this year. I can’t wait to see what lies ahead!
