S3E4: When It's All Too Much

Lara is an Associate Director of Student Ministries for InterVarsity's Nurses Christian Fellowship. She lives in Jacksonville, FL with her husband, son, and two cats. After graduating from Michigan State University in 2012, she came on staff with InterVarsity as a campus minister and then area director in southeast Michigan before joining the NCF team. Her hobbies include indoor rock climbing, volleyball, crocheting, and hanging out at the beach.

I am an Associate Directors of Student Ministries for NCF after coming on staff in 2020. In this role I have the joy of resourcing and coaching faculty advisors, volunteers, and student leaders across the country so that their groups can grow and thrive. My journey has not been what I ever would have expected but I am thankful that it has grown me in my relationship with God. I have two amazing adult daughters who have taught me so much, and I am grateful to be able to see them finding their own paths now. Living in Minnesota gives me plenty of spaces to experience God’s creation so I enjoy walking trails around my home and listening to worship music.
