I am Sarah Teetsel, from Fulton, NY and a recent graduate from Nazareth College of Rochester with a degree in Music and a minor in Philosophy.  I came to be part of FVM this year to be part of the family and community that I had witnessed in previous years.  Seeing how the FVM's were such an integral and welcome part of the community, I knew that I would like to also be part of that community, bringing my gifts and talents to share.  Within the Wilmington community, I am so excited by the energy and enthusiasm exuded by my housemates and our supervisor, Chris Posch, ofm.  Their energy and passion for humanity is contagious, and with it, I believe we can really make a difference by this year simply by being present in this community  I hope that throughout this year I am able to find balance and be the person I am called to be.  I hope I may be strong in my convictions for equality and justice, and able to be changed for the better by those around me.
