Ministry Intern

Kim Bos Kim Bos
I hail from a little town called Fruitport, MI. I am a junior in James Madison College studying International Relations and Social Relations with a specialization in Middle Eastern Women's Studies. I'm the Vice President of Membership of the International Relations Organization, and I'm involved with MSU Model UN. I spent my junior year in Goteborg, Sweden, it really changed me. I love God, people, and art, in that order. I love performing Arts like drama, music, or dance. I spend a lot of my free time bumming around Case Hall, playing Frisbee, watching movies, and creating chaos. I'm pretty energetic; I'm always planning something, and even when I'm not planning, crazy things happen to me. Ask me about it sometime. I love life, and I love to laugh, and I tend to hold to the opinion that life is too short to be so serious all the time. Send Kim An Email

Peer Minister

Michelle Adams Michelle Adams
I am a communications major with a specialization in public relations and will be a third year at Michigan State University. I enjoy hanging out with friends be it at a park or just watching movies. I am very enthusiastic and can be described as being "very excited" for things. One thing that stands out about me is that I love the color yellow and ducks. I love to chat with people and am always willing to listen to what people have to say. I also enjoy music whether it's playing an instrument, singing or listening, it's one of the passions in my life. I am very excited for next year and for all the blessings that it shall bring.
God Bless,
Michelle

I am a senior majoring in Secondary Mathematics Education with a minor in English.  I greatly enjoy reading, watching unusual movies, tossing around a Frisbee, and telling the greatest/worst jokes you will ever hear, along with having a major and minor combination that doesn’t seem to match.  Having been born and raised in frigid Michigan, I have perfected the art of staying inside and having engaging conversations, and love having them on a daily basis.  I’m a very open and welcoming individual and look forward to seeing you each week at Wesley.

Maggie Ferrara Maggie Ferrara
Hey there! My name is Maggie Ferrara and I’m a junior at MSU studying Astrophysics with a specialization in Paleontology. Just Kidding. I’m a Hospitality Business major and am enjoying learning how to wash my hands properly. I play on the club Rugby team for MSU and contrary to the stereotype, I’m not a mean & angry person (unless you steal my Caramel Frappacino, or Sesquicentennial ice cream – then things might turn ugly). I like long walks on the beach, candle light dinners, jetting off to foreign countries (ok, so maybe just traveling), being outside on a sunny day, my family and friends, laughing until your stomach hurts, trying insane workout videos, stupid movies, every kind of music, random adventures with random people, dressing up in goofy outfits, and late night chats with good friends.  I’m a pretty positive, upbeat and energetic person and you can always come to me if you need a smile, a hug, a listening ear, or just someone to be ridiculous with.  Plus, I’m living in Abbott, so if you ever want to eat at the amazing Sny Phi caf, I’m there in a heartbeat.  I’m down for trying just about anything at least once, so give me a jingle anytime and we’ll hang out and create some amazing MSU memories together. Remember … you can always retake the class and remake the money, but you can never remake the memories – college only lasts so long … lets live it up!

Hey Everyone! I am in my fourth year here at MSU and am in the College of Agriculture and Natural Resources majoring in Horticulture – Landscape Design. I am living off campus this year so if anyone needs someone to talk to, hang out with, for late night randomness just drop me an e-mail.

I am from a lot of different places. My home town, where I spent the first ten years of my life, was Freeland, MI. I later moved to Howell, MI for nine years where I first accepted Christ as my savior (which is why I also call Howell FUMC my ‘Home” church). Finally during the summer months I am in Yorkville, IL (Forty-five minutes southwest of Chicago) where I work non-stop at a Nursery/Greenhouse/Landscape company.

For fun I enjoy doing many different things. I enjoy being random for one thing and at all hours of the day/night. I enjoy hanging out with people and getting to know them or watching movies together. I LOVE to blast music in my room (it is a great stress reliever), I also enjoy driving my car or any car in general. I also really enjoy the outdoors and hiking, rock climbing, camping, white-water rafting and anything else that might sound like fun.

I am an easy going kind of guy and love to make people happy. So if you ever need some cheerin’ up or whatever your need may be, just get a hold of me, and I will do my best to be there for everyone.
