Hey, I am Patrick, the Faith Formation Chair of the 2025 CSO Board. I became involved with the Catholic Center shortly after I transferred into Georgia Tech, the summer before my sophomore year. I have found a home away from home from the very beginning joining the summer community dinners! I quickly came to realize the Catholic Center is a special and impactful place. I developed a desire to give back and continue to help the community that so openly welcomed me. One of my fondest CC memories is my first Renew and the post Renew bonfire. It highlighted the beautiful nature of the CC, where God is placed first as we orient our lives towards him. This can be seen in things like in Adoration, but also in how we can do it as a community as we spend time, with each other, as we sing songs, make s’mores and laugh by the fire. When I am not in class, you can find me studying at the CC, out on a run, playing intramurals, or trying not to lose to Francesco in foosball … again.
