In 1990 a dream found opportunity. For years several members of the St. Gregory's community had been envisioning a group of St. Gregory's students providing a resource for Catholic youth ministry in the state of Oklahoma. We were able, using my parents' estate, to create a scholarship fund for this purpose. Over these 14 years, lively and faith-filled students travel to parishes in Oklahoma, Texas and Arkansas to show that their faith is alive and life-giving. At the same time, they present a healthy image of the education that is the gift of St. Gregory's University to the Catholic community in Oklahoma.
