Sarah Grassel: Service

Hi everyone! My name is Sarah Grassel and I’m a Biology major with a Spanish minor. I’m from Corvallis, Oregon, and have lived my whole life in the Pacific Northwest. Because of this, I’ve developed a love of the outdoors, especially of hiking, biking, and paddle boarding (and also coffee of course). I love to go on walks, especially on the beach, and like to read, bake, play piano, swim, and spend time with friends and family. At Gonzaga, I’m involved in campus ministry and work as a tutor in math and chemistry, and, of course, I am a Seton. Coming to Gonzaga, I knew I wanted to find a community that valued service and connection. Service has always been an important part of my life. Through volunteering, I’ve gotten to meet so many people from different walks of life while working on various projects. I believe serving others is essential to living a flourishing life. It’s an act of love and humility, recognizing the gifts one has received and working for and with others in gratitude...

Artisans Reflection: Bret Matysik


This week marks the first of many spent volunteering with Artisans. As Knights and Setons, we will be individually assigned with helping a disabled person in the Spokane community to improve his or her professional habits in order to transition them into the workplace.  I am so excited to see the difference that I can individually make, as well as the difference that Knights and Setons can collectively make in the lives of these people seeking employment. I believe that we will make a significant difference in the lives of our mentees, while developing our own leadership abilities and outlook on life through our work. I think I speak for the group in saying that I am grateful for the opportunity to be a part of something that is bigger than myself and I am delighted to lend a helping hand to those who truly need it.
