My name is Monica; I was born in Sacramento CA but raised in a beautiful town in Morelos, Mexico. I’m currently working at a school district as a Spanish interpreter. I am also currently a member of the Spanish choir (1:15pm Spanish mass) and I like to sing the psalms. Ever since I was child I enjoyed being an altar server, doing community service for my church in Mexico like helping out in festivals, important patron saint festivities and also going to catechesis. I was called to serve the Lord when I got invited to join the Spanish Choir and had a wonderful experience during one of the masses. I love to serve my community and help others, and what other better way to do it than for the glory of God. My mission for this group is to help youth see that to follow Jesus doesn’t mean that it has to be “boring” or “old fashion”, and help them make a connection with him through worship and prayer. I feel blessed to be chosen as one of the ministers for this group and I’m looking forward to working along with Derek to make great things for our youth community!
