Michael Kneff

Project Director - US and Guatemala
When I was 13 years old, I traveled to Mexico with two friends to build a house. That was my first Mission Discovery project. What I didn't know at the time was, that short term missions would become a huge part of my life. I know exactly what a one week project can do in someone's life. I am passionate about serving the poor and helping the Church fulfill the call of Jesus Christ.
