My passion is to see students come to a deeper understanding of God's extravagant love and unending grace. And to see Him touch the world by reaching the international community on campus.

I got involved with Chi Alpha when I was a student at Western Washington University. It was there that God grew in me a love for missions and a deep desire to grow in passion for Him.

After graduating in 1999, I did a one-year internship in campus ministry before moving to Pullman, Washington to work on staff with Chi Alpha at Washington State University for the last two years. (Go Cougs!)  Now, I'm working full time with U of I Chi Alpha.

I am married to Jason Kelly; we have a dog named Tozer.

Kara facts:

Favorite Book: The Life You've Always Wanted by John Ortberg

Favorite Quote: "In Him I live and move and have my being."

Favorite Verse: "I pray that from his glorious, unlimited resources he will give you mighty inner strength through his Holy Spirit. And I pray that Christ will be more and more at home in your hearts as you trust in him. May your roots go down deep into the soil of God's marvelous love. And may you have the power to understand, as all God's people should, how wide, how long, how high, and how deep his love really is. May you experience the love of Christ, though it is so great you will never fully understand it. Then you will be filled with the fullness of life and power that comes from God."

- Ephesians 3:16-19
