About

Trace grew up in Western Kansas for most of his life. When he was about 16 he decided to immerse himself more in the Catholic faith, which would later result in him attending Benedictine College where he would graduate in May 2021 with a degree in Journalism & Mass Communications. When Trace was struggling to find a job, CP contacted him about becoming a CP Missionary. Though Trace knew little about the organization and its mission, he quickly discovered during the application process and through proper discernment that becoming a CP Missionary was God's will for him. "Who am I to say no to God? Every saint's journey began with their yes to His will, and I have no reason to believe my journey would be any different."

However, I…
