Rose Deemer

I grew up in the Ann Arbor area, where my family attended Old St. Pat's and St. Augustine's HEP. I graduated from Franciscan University of Steubenville in 2018 with a bachelor's degree in English literature and a passion for sharing the truth, goodness, and beauty of God. My desire for ministry (fueled by a mission trip to the Bronx and retreat ministry with high school students) led me to spend seven months working in at a crisis pregnancy shelter in Arizona, an experience which opened my eyes to the depths of human brokenness and the even greater depths of God's love. I moved back to the Ann Arbor area to discern the next steps in my journey, which led me to back to Old St. Patrick's. I am so grateful for the opportunity to serve this community as the youth minister, and to give back to the parish and the youth group which formed me in the faith!
