Our Lady Of Guadalupe

Introductions first (from left to right):

Fred Lopez- Our fearless team leader (well, one of them). His second year on Reach. He's the oldest of anyone on team this year, at the age of 24, which means he brings a lot of life experience to the team. He grew up in Tijuana, Mexico, but now lives in Yakima, WA.

Mary Berger- Our home-town Yakima girl. She comes from a line of reachies, but she's most definitely the coolest! She was home-schooled, loves sports, plays the piano like no one's business and

Shea McHugh- Our other Coeur d'Alene, ID girl. She's 19 and just graduated from high school. She loves music and games and talking to people.

Mathea Heffley- Our other fearless leader. She grew up in Coeur d'Alene/Post Falls, ID and this is her second year on Reach. She is the oldest girl on team this year, at the ripe old age of 19 (20 in December), and she brings a ton of energy and fun to our team.

Amber Kaufman- Our only Oregon girl, from Salem. She's 18, and converted to Catholicism a couple years ago. She also just graduated from high school, loves music and dancing, wants to be a nurse when she grows up, and is our vegetarian.

Phill Peterson- Our East Coast kid, from Chicago, IL. He just recently got confirmed (on the 22nd of September to be exact), which was amazing! YAY PHILL!!! He graduated from High School last year, loves dramas and skits, and had no idea what he was getting into when he signed up for Reach but he's having tons of fun.

We're having an amazing time getting to know each other as we put on retreats and travel around the northwest. This weekend we're off to Prince George, Canada. It's a crazy 16 hour drive to get there but we're looking forward to it. Keep us in your prayers!
God bless,
Our Lady of Guadalupe
