Outreach Chair
SANTIAGO BARRERO
I am a man who tries to find God in every little thing that happens to me, or what I do. My first vocation is to holiness, my second is being a finance major at VCU. I I found God working in the oil fields of North Dakota, and being a roughneck. The way how we work on wells, is very similar to how God works in our hearts and souls. May the Oil field become sanctified.
