ÂÌñÒùÆÞ

Colleen Degen

Colleen Degen is a wife and mother of three in her 10th year on staff, serving as a Campus Staff Minister first at Valparaiso University, then Purdue University Northwest, and currently as Area Ministry Director for the Chicagoland Suburbs. She grew up in the Catholic Church while also being exposed to many other denominations through her family and friends. This led to ÂÌñÒùÆÞ’s interdenominational foundation being a great fit when she found it her freshman year at Lewis University. Over the past several years God has grown her Catholic identity and Colleen now has a heart for helping Catholics feel welcome and thrive in ÂÌñÒùÆÞ.
