How can young Catholics stay strong in faith on a large, secular campus?

In this uplifting episode, Texas A&M freshman Bryce LaRue shares his journey of finding community, purpose, and peace through the Eucharist—and how college life can become a powerful mission field for Christ.

Bryce Larue, a communications major and student leader, joins us to share:

• How a life-changing encounter at a Steubenville Conference deepened his love for the Eucharist.
• The power of adoration and daily prayer to anchor college life.
• Why community, service, and rest are essential for balance and holiness.
• His advice for students discerning between Catholic and public universities—and how God can work powerfully in both.
• How the witness of St. Carlo Acutis inspires him to live for heaven, even in the digital age.

Bryce’s story reminds us that faith doesn’t fade in college—it can flourish when rooted in prayer, purpose, and authentic community.
